on saturday june 3rd i setup a 10gal tank. well i had a hood that took two bulbs one per side of the tank. well i went and bought two 50/50 20watt bulbs. got them home and in one box i received a 10watt instead so i took that back and they were out so now i am waiting. however i went ahead with my plans and just put the one 50/50 bulb i had on the right side of the tank. this morning ( 6/6/06 ) when i woke up i noticed that i have algae already starting however its only on the right side..
i now understand why you dont go cheap on lights. i just thought i would share that with everyone..
