Currently shopping for a fuge light. Considering a few options: there are $30 plant grow led bulbs on amazon, there is the $129 kessil A80, or $300 H380. I'm concerned with the heat created by the big kessil though. I know this is the cornerstone of the triton approach, so I want to be sure I...
Starting up a 40B this weekend and am seriously considering this triton method. Anyone have any experiences they can share? Basically other than the chemicals, and maybe a better return pump, it looks like I just need the chemicals.
List of equipment:
40B
E-shopps R-200 sump
Skimmer
2 BRS...
I'm strongly considering doing the triton method on this tank. What fuge light are you running? How easy/hard has the overall experience been, and have the results matched your expectations?
I may actually go the premade route now; but only because my LFS needs a bunch of leopard geckos (and I have a surplus), so my out of pocket will be ~$75 for the E-shoppes R-100.

I have a 20L, and I have some plexiglass, so I may just take a crack at it. How would I determine the right baffle height to...
Curious why people spend 10x as much $$$for a premade sump, instead of making their own? One benefit seems to be they are quieter, but I feel like I was able to make mine (acceptably) quiet. Are there other reasons I'm missing?
Basically I'm in the frenzied phase of starting a new tank...
