Bro, old liao..let me try to recall....light is 80 watts x 4, daily light on from 4 or 5pm to 12 midnight, temperature is 2 to 3 degree below room temp with the use of 1 x AC ANS fan. btw tested with 2 fans also same temp, only diff is need to top up more water. CO2 should be 6 to 8 bubble per sec. Tom Barr EI (Estimative Index) dry fert dosing..dry fert got from NA...filter by 1 x eheim 2260 with NA external CO2 reactor
