I dropped it in sump,,oops,, and now it makes noise like sizzling bacon ,, mmmmm ,, not good

So if any of my peeps has I spare I’d appreciate it if I could borrow it
Thanks God Bless

Not go-jack this thread. Can you post about this denitrate reactor in a new thread.

One of those with a normal bulb grows stuff like mad.
 
Like everyone said I’m using this Home Depot bulb and one of these aluminum clamp fixtures and my Chaeto is growing really well.

Paulie if u. Need a bulb i also have smaller ones .. smaller than a regular light bulb
 
How many watt
5k "daylight" CFL bulbs get like 120w or something like that. i used to run two of these 24 hrs a day growth was crazy - one on the top and one on the side. i remember i'd have to scrape off my side every couple of days though but i was getting double coverage. but i wouldnt start 24 hrs right off the bat. work your way up. a lot of people like to run them when their display lights are off, balances out the ph or makes the copepod gods happy
