Maybe its me but there seems to be some confusion about lighting. It seems with the addition of nano tanks, the standard watts per gallon rule isnt as much of an issue. I've heard several times..."nanos dont need the same amount of light." Well, the 24G AP is still 16" deep whether its a nano or not. Is the 110w pc upgrade vs 1 X 70W 14K HQI an issue? The 110w pc is more watts per gallon but the HQI is a more intense light. I dont plan on keeping acros but I want more than just mushrooms and zoos. Can somebody shed some light on this?
