Is one 13 watt compact fluorescent 50/50 bulb enough for a eclipse system six ? I am putting in LR , LS, inverts,mushroom corals. Thanks

I think it would be enough for your mushrooms .... not too much else. I had shrooms and ricordea's under a 13 watt PC blue/white combo and they not only survived but grew as well - not very fast but they did grow!

Thanks,I have the stuff to put 2,but I dont feel like installing a fan.
Or do I need a fan with one bulb ?

I have 2x13 on my eclipse with no fans. All you have to do is just drill tons of holes in the lid or just take it clean off. Mine stays at about 80-82 degrees.
