True, maybe its because I did it so quick right after? How you think the lighting is going to be?

I also only have the bulb about 3 - 4 inches from the water. Anybody know if I should have a piece of glass between the bulb and the water? Im just worried about the bulb getting wet and breaking? Im not sure.

yeah not sure how easy the bulbs break but if you ask me the light is too much to only use on shrooms. Could have kept the pcs

True, but....I have zoas in the nano right now that werent opening at all with the pcs. Now with the mh only on for 3+ hours they are opening. I had another idea for a theme. But it was too unrealistic for price. From what Ive read, if anything the shrooms will grow quicker? If I can think of something else I may do it....

You could always try your mad scientist blender theory you were telling me about when I was stealing your RO water...

I mean. You could always make this more interesting >

with that light and shrooms they will take over in no time.

That will be a nice lighting combanation for that tank as long as you can keep the heat down. when I went to MH on ly old tank the mushrooms exploded and took over entire areas of the tank in very little time.
