3g Eclipse

[pharaoh2387]

I happened to have a 3 gallon eclipse tank lying around and decided to make use of it by putting some water and a piece of live rock from my 29 biocube in it. I have 1 blue/yellow damsel in it right now but he'll probably come out eventually. My question is, would I be able to keep zoos in there? I'm not sure that the lighting would be enough. It's the stock lighting which I think it's a 9w T5 fluorescent. Pretty weak. If it's not enough light for that does anyone know a way I can mod the lighting to be able to keep some softies in there?
Thanks

With an Eclipse 3 it comes with regular (fluresant [sp?]) lights. I have 1 with 2 guppies in it and it is weak, i dont tihnk you could get corals in there with it. But looking at it now, its just a regular, strip light. So measure it, and look around see if they see a better light that size Because i dont tihnk Marineland makes any better ights for it

you could probably go with non photo synthetic stuff....

I ran across the same problem. It's actually a 6 Watt bulb that comes with the Eclipse 3. I was looking for something bigger but had no luck

. I asked my LFS about it and they though I could do mushrooms and non photosynthetic stuff. I'm just gonna do that, it;s still better then a small freshwater!
