Re: [GSAS-Member] AH Supply 96 watt Bright Kits

Hi Jeff,

I have 1X96 watt over my 45 gallon tall and it is all I need!  You may want
to watch out with 6X96 watts; jetliners mistake your home for the airport!
LOL

Seriously though, I would suggest you ramp up slowly with the wattage and
photoperiod.  If it were me, I would do no more than 4X96 watts to start and
a 4-6 hour photoperiod.  I continue the short period and lower wattage until
I am sure the nitrogen cycle had been completed and I have sufficient plants
in there to out-compete any algae growth.  Otherwise I end up with a huge
algae outbreak.  Let us know how it goes!

BTW, pictures of this beast would be great with all that light on!

Roy
