lights for a 3g

[Nitroq2]

I have a couple of tens when I started I used those I am actually about to set one back up it has a 96 watt custom hood on it. I am not near the handyman you are though.

I have a 10 I am about to start back up that will have 96w on it and also might make a small pico for here at work. document yours here so I can follow it.

will do. im actually on my way back to lowes to take back the 50w light that i was gonna use. and im gonna get whatever supplies i can get with the money i get back since my money hasnt cleared in the bank yet.

Or if you wanted to go with a fixture and not have to make a hood you could get one of these also coralife makes them. I am not recommending the site I jut found the fixture there. Its 36w with fans and all already there

its more fun to build for cheep then to buy expensive

 

[kraftyforu]

well ive got all the wiring done and most of the hood done. im waiting on the front piece to get flexible (soaking in hot water) so i can bend it to the bowfront shape. then all i should have left is some sanding and staining to do.

 

[Nitroq2]

Cool, what did you decide on? two of those 20w bulbs?

 

[kraftyforu]

yea. now i just got to decide on what stain i want to use

 

[Nitroq2]

You already get the bulbs or are you going to need two?

 

[kraftyforu]

im going to need 2

 

[Nitroq2]

I got two that are still with plenty of life. We can work up a deal. You still got these shrooms

If so maybe a few of those for one and a few candy cane for the other? Or best offer

 

[kraftyforu]

i think i still have some of those somewhere in my tank. a lot of ppl have takin those and i still dont know what they are called

 

[Nitroq2]

You want to make that trade then?

 

[kraftyforu]

ill see if i can gather any up

 

[Nitroq2]

You get that finished and stained yet?

 

[kraftyforu]
