Cheap, strong light?
Browsing through a hardware store yesterday, I came across some halogen
lights and suddenly realized that I have never heard any mention of anybody
trying them over an aquarium. With there being no expensive, bulky, noisy
ballasts, and with 500W bulbs costing $4.00, somebody must have tried them.
I am considering a large new tank as a divider between rooms. The ceiling
is a little lower than average over the area where to tank would be, and it
occurs to me that a row of recessed, 75W halogen lights above the tank
might look very nice.
Does anybody know anything about the spectrum that these things put out, or
failing that, how I could find out?
Frank.
