When I get my first 20 nano tank built using T5's, I would probably want to build a 2nd 20 long nano. With this 2nd nano Like to do the lighting a little different. So I have a few questions.
1] what's the difference between MH and HQI ( I had seen HQI in threads on other forums I was checking out?
2] If I go with MH what's the lowest wattage can I use for a 20 long and how many would be sufficient 1 or 2?
3] Still on MH's what kind of affect would i see on my electric bill between the different watt bulbs?
4] How much does the price of the different watt bulbs cost?
5] How often would the MH bulb need to be change?
6] would you reccomend running a combination of either MH & T5's or MH & CF
Now we are moving on to the next lights.
7] what do you guys think of CF lights?
8] How many CF Bulbs would be best on a 20 long?
9] Can the CF be as power hungry as the MH?
At this poing I know there probably more questions, but for some reason they just don't want to come to the surface in my mind. I think they are afraid that they will get answered. lol
