    Watage to gallons?

    Yep, I sure have. The guy on that thread said my light was good enough. But never thought of taking the 54 x 4 and it equalling under 3 watts per gallon. Should have read the book that I have because it says to get 3 - 4 watts per gallon for most stuff. 5 - 7 watts for keeping anything in the...
