Thanks much for the feedback Cliff. There are definitely lots of lighting
options out there... and more light necessitates a little more attention to
nutrient & C02 conditions. Higher-light tanks are a bit more work to
maintain, at least initially.

But the results can be fantastic.

We'll do lighting at the March 7 meeting!

 Speaking of which, please offer feedback on what you'd like to cover at an
upcoming study group gathering.

I think people need help in figuring out whether they need strong lighting
and dosing. I've cut light to 1 watt per gallon and a lot of cool plants
still
grow, and no more algae problems. In the room the tank looks nicer now
that it's not so blazingly bright. Thanks for doing the study group...there
seems to be a lot of interest.
