i think they are 15 watt bulbs but i thought condi's didn't need much light

 

[nigerbang]

where can i get a 1x65 pc and how much do they cost?

 

[mrducks]

All that is, is a power compact light fixture (PC) with a single 65 watt bulb. You could get that a lot of places. What size is your tank? These are PC light fixtures. Depending on tank size i would get a PC fixture that holds 2 of the bulbs. You can still get the 50/50s.

There was a link at the bottom to show you the prices if you didnt catch that.

my tank is 55 gal. i'm guessing i would need two 20" fixtures

Actually 2 24 inch fixtures or 1 48 inch. If you are interested still heres the fixture I would get. It comes with bulbs and would supply a sufficient amount of light to the anemonies. If thats too expensive check ---- for a similar product.

Where those dashes are (i guess it wont let you say the word) i meant that place where you do auctions online.
