Hello everyone,
I'm going to be purchasing a 125 g tank, probably later this week. I want a planted tank, CO2, etc., which I'm now doing on my 55.
My question is this - I'm looking at using two 2 x 96W power compact fixtures for a total of abt 400 W. Each is 36" long, the tank is 72". This seems to make a lot more sense to me than spending a lot of $$ on a 72" fixture (or building my own canopy & installing my own lights).
Thoughts? Thanks.
