So I went and got a Coralife Aqualight PC Fixture with a 50/50 28 watt bulb.I also picked up some LR rubble and chaeto and switched out the filter cartridge for this.
The light fixture didn't fit perfect, and I could just see my fiance's stupid cat knocking it into the tank...so I made a screen lid with a cutout for the filter out of hardware cloth...it'll work until I get some eggcrate...or if it does work, I may just stick with it....
Pics of the new light and the screen top:
Modded Filter: (there is LR rubble underneath the chaeto and just a few pieces ontop of it to keep it in place)
Light for filter: (This is a 4 watt T5 mini light...runs on 4 AA batteries, will this do?)
And one of the tank clearing up even more
:
The new filter will probably have to wait for next week...
I got a test kit....and went ahead and did them just to know what I was doing...these are my readings:
PH-8.4
Ammonia-0ppm
Nitrite-0ppm
Nitrate-0ppm
Anyways...any more advice?:shrugs:
