The two pc retrofits that will work have either a single 32w bulb or dual 32w bulbs. So the two questions are which lighting sytem should i do and once the retrofit is in the hood how do i keep the water off of it. |
You should go with the highest lighting you can without overheating your tank. I would, as was suggested before, ditch the hood and go with a different light system.
