Re: [GSAS-Member] CFL bulbs



I use three 6500k 26w CFLs in clamp-on lights hung as pendants to light a  
20g long with DIY CO2. The setup has been sufficient to grow a variety of  
plants ranging from Ceratopteris (water sprite) to Hygrophila balsamica and  
Poaceae sp. (Purple Bamboo). The setup is also good at growing prodigious  
amounts of macro algae.. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else is using  
a similar, or more polished looking, setup.
