Maybe if you can do this for a few months measuring all sorts of data, we can put it in the library.

Interesting things to know are:
1) lighting intensity both under and above water line (ie 1" & 10" below water vs 1" above water, when bulbs are say 5" above water)
2) intensity changes over a period of 12 months
3) ambient temperature of bulbs, with room temperature as reference (maybe interesting to know how this changes over time)

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">#2 is easy, and it isn't to hard to raise my lights once a month to measure for #1, but how do you sugest I do #3? room temp (cabnet temp) is easy as I have a indoor out door thermomiter to tell me my cabnet temp and my water temp but I don't have a way to measure the temp of the bulb...
