Guess What!!

Okay, finally woke up, took a full day, I'm excited now. LOL

On mine the legs attach to the tank or to the canopy. Yours throws some nice light, but as noted above on the bulb.
 
Looks great! I like that light...how does it look at night with the lunar light? Do you have to use the legs or can you place it flat on the glass part? I am wondering about ordering one myself :) Michelle

You can do it either way, on the Glass, or on its legs, i read somewhere it looks better on its legs.


I dont understand what you are all saying about the bulbs, theres like 2 bulbs attached together with what looks like silicon.

"Integrated compact fluorescent light fixture with LED Lunar Light simulates 24-hour day and night lighting cycle. The Satellite compact fluorescent light fixture is the first entry level lighting system to include the latest technologies and professional features at an affordable price.

So, my question is, how much watts am i pulling that currently "COUNT"
 
I can't tell you about the bulbs but I can say that I would be a littel weary about the legs sitting directly on the glass top like that. The legs are meant to be supported by the tank's edge, that's why there is the space you see on the footing of each. Move the legs out more so they can grip the tanks edge instead.

Tank looks great!
 
You have one PC bulb, does it only have one attachement at the end to hook into your strip? That being said..it is most likely a 50/50, You should replace it ASAP with a 10000k daylight bulb only to get the desired results. You can consider yourself running about 37 watts of light "that count" over your tank atm...
