Default First time w/ plants. PMDD, DIY CO2, and lots of questions!

What lighting are you using ?

Peter

I done a diy job on my existing wood hood ( I have a sea-bray tank)
I cut 2 square holes and got some 2nd hand wall washers into which I
fitted 150W metal halide lamps 6,500k.
With 3 x 36W triton flouros it's probably a bit ott, but it looks
great and the plants are doing very well.

Wow !
I'm well underpowered with just the stock Juwel Rio 400 2x36w T8's with
reflectors :-(
