me again :jumping:
I started reading online about reefs etc. (I haven't finished yet)
My major concern is lighting, well even for fish only. I am redoing my master suite and put the aquarium in there, so on my bad days, I could listen to the soft sounds etc while lying down. So far, I have not moved all of my furniture down there, so have not spent a lot of time down there, except to look at the damsels everyday and give them a feed.
My question:
Can reef bulbs be put into my regular ballast? Do they flicker bad?
I know fluorescents are a BIG trigger to my seizures. Most people don't know they flicker anyway, so fast the normal eye is not bothered, but for me, BAM on the ground I go and flop like a fish out of water...pun intended...lol
I am not sure how aquarium lighting will go for me, the only times I have had bad experiences with fluro is in a room that is lighted by it. I hope once I move down there, it will not be a problem, but I could always cut the lights off at early eve.
Any suggestions on lighting if I go reef? Will it fit my current ballast?
I have cc substrate is that ok for reef?
