Hi guys, i have a very shallow tank of only 12" but 5 foot long and only 8" wide, i have various plants in there with a twin 115cm power Glo fitting sat resting on the glass sliders, i only have 1x 54w Power Glo tube switched on at any point. Although i do not have temp issues, i do have plant growth and serious algae issues (lighting only on for 8hrs or less per day). I dont mind going down the CO2 route but think i need to sort the lighting out. I know the 54w Power Glo tube i use is designed for deep aquarium penetration being 18,000k. What tube/s are ideal for shallow long tanks. (i dont want to raise the light fitting because it blinds people sat in the living rm whilst watching tv, hence it rests on the sliders) i also dont want to have to buy a new fitting either.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks
