I was wondering if anyone uses this fixture, and what there results were with it. Does it take any 48" T5 bulb, or just Hagen Glo? If it takes any, what is the best brand light bulb; lumen rating also.
don't have the 48", but do have a 24" on my 15G planted tank ... obviously much smaller in scale, but I think it works just fine ... I am using the 6700K Life Glo bulb ... it's a lo-tech, no CO2 setup -- I do use Excel, tho -- and my plants are booming ...
