10k and actinic spectra?
So, on the craigslist by me, someone is selling a 4x54 watt system from a used reef tank. Its the Nova Extreme T5.
For the price ($100), its a pretty good deal, however since it is a reef setup, I'm not sure about the lights on it.
The questions I have are:
#1) Normal bulbs (t5 warm/cool) will be able to put into this thing?
#2) How "off" is the spectra of the actinic and the 10k. How much usable light it there for the plants? I know it might not be pretty to look at, but as long as the plants can absorb the light, and I can wait until I have to replace them, then I'll be happy.
