Just noticed that the Mandarin has what appears to be a fish louse on his right pectoral fin. It's about 1/8" long and looks like a very compressed coepepod. Anyone know anything about these?
I'm going to put a 250w 20k next to a 400w 14k. What will they look like side by side?
Will one drastically wash out the other? Will it look ok? Anyone have this combination or maybe had both?
I use a 400w 14k on the 40 breeder. It makes everything radiant. My tank runs 76-78 on any given day. If you are willing to suspend the halide without a canopy or hood, you will probably be able to get away with 2)
400's on the 90.
Have you ever been under light for 24/7? I can tell you from personal experience that it's not too pleasant. Maybe a pod would have a different opinion though. Most living things need a period of darkness for rest.
