Ok, I went to a reliable lfs today......talked with a guy who has been working there for a few years........ and he has his own 12g nano swt. He told me , what he did for his lights was the following:
He took 2 Mini Compact Fluorescent 50/50 coralife 10w bulbs and 2 Mini Compact Fluorescent Colormax 10w bulbs , picked up 2 double sided fixture sockets. He then made a small canopy to fit on the 12g. He linned it with ten foil and mounted the 2 double sided fixtures in it , stagard. So what he has is 20watts of 50/50 and 20watts of the daylight bulbs. He has 40watts over his 12g nano, that would be 4watts per gallon for me cause I have a 10g............how does that sound??? What if I added 2 more bulbs to mine for 60watts of lighting....would that be even better...............:thinking: thanks
