I Need some pictures of this amazing tank you putting together.
I just got some lights from Home Depot I think they are philips daylight bulbs.
This is only, one and the light fixture wasn't ment for the tank so a lot of the light doesn't go into the tank. I dont' have any plants so they are not a concern, do you have/want plants? Its a very bright white light. 40 watts and I think it 6700K
no plants. I'll post some pics once im done. so far i have a sand for substrate, one brown pot, one white pos and soon some drift wood. I got to boil the wood. so i dont introduce anything. I would like to add a skull (real but not human) but im not sure if that will cause any problems. what do you think.
it may raise the ph (calcium? )but I haven't really thought of it. Is it a bull skull with horns? That would be cool. Can you boil it? If anything you can put it in another tank/container and test the water. On the bulbs the one in the picture has been by far the brightest and nicest I've had on a tank. I can turn the room lights off and I can still take a very good picture. My other tank has smaller bulbs so I can't use the same lights and its darker and not as white of a light. And I got 2 bulbs for like $7 at HD.
