Re: [Killietalk] watts per gallon

[Paul_Jablinski at notes.udayton.edu]

I have florescent lights of 15 watts over all my 3 gallon tanks.  I put
them on when I get up at 5:30 and turn them off at about 10:30pm.  I have
lots of Java fern in each tank and often times I do not see the fish
because of so many ferns.  I keep one large tank of 29 gallons to display
my killies. In that one I also have lots of plants like sword plants and
Java fern, but I am able to see the fish quite easily, especially when I
feed them.  I wouldn't have it any other way.

Dear Killi-list,

I've read that most Killifish prefer dim light.  What would be a good
fluorescent watts/gallon ration for Aphyosemions?  I'm a little worried
that I'm over illuminating my tanks.  Even with floating vegetation.

Thanks,
