Hi all,
next week opening my bank account. Will be getting new phone first then some stuff to my 27 UK gallon tank. I would want to do better lights, just like I have done in my 6 (it is finally a six gallon, 28L tank) gallon tank Walstad method. But my bigger tank is not gonna be Walstad, since I am squatting any fish in there LOL. Also will want additional filter in there, a HOB and will wanna do pothos for nitrate control + a potting mix soil for plants.
So the issue with lighting, the tank is pretty high, 50cm high - 5cm high brace as the light will sit peacefully on the brace. I have tried seeing how it will be with desk lamp I use (and will want to do it with the same model), so I put it on brace but the light is insufficient, but I have water spangles on water surface are so it could have reduced light capacity. I will also try without water spangles.
I still would want some help with the light. Any advice?
P.S.
The tank is 80cm
