The tank is a 40G IM-EXT and tomorrow I’m switching from x4 T5 to a Hamilton 250W Cayman Sun Pendant with a 14k Phoenix MH Bulb
While not really necessary (for growth), , I’m considering adding LED supplemental lighting. Mainly because given the small tank, dealing with temperature issues and excessive evaporation, I don’t want to run the MH for to a long photo period and would like to simulate dusk and dawn, or low light so I can view the tank out outside the scheduled of the halide.
My first thought is a Kessil Tuna blue as the mounting is adjustable and I can keep it away from the heat of the halide, with a relatively small footprint.
Any suggestions ? The Kessil is kinda pricey given the intended need therefore I’m open to less expensive options
