LightingScience of Aquatic Lighting - Aquarium lighting is essential for healthy aquatic plants. Discuss proper aquatic lighting for your plants and fish here.
Ok, here is a tank that measures 2 ft. X 1 ft. X 1 ft.
It is lit by 1 (one) 15 watt bulb.
No matter what the properties of the bulb are - the almost completely useless Kelvins, the correct or incorrect spectrum, 15 watt HQI or whatever.... How is that tank possible?
I know that every single one of us in the US - guru, newbie, or Nikolay would agree - such a light is completely useless!
Easy. S/he has something similar to these flexible skylights that essentially bring close to full strength daylight directly to the aquarium. In a sunny area you could do that easily.
In fact you can tell there are two bright light sources in the photo.
I know a guy who has a 150g reef lit by those. He has a couple of pc's for cloudy days. He has no trouble keeping some of the high light corals like acros.
Okay, I only see one photo of an aquasape with many rock - is this is the tank you're saying is:2 ft. X 1 ft. X 1 ft?? Then surely, I'd say: NOT!
I'd be willing to wager some hard earned money that tank is around 4 ft long and at least 18" tall. Now, a tank that size is not growing with a 15 w bulb - no way.
those are for sure the same tanks...compare the rocks side by side, they are identical, and the space between the lights is even the same
Definately. Look at the left-most rock with the large white "spot" on it. Same in both pictures. Then look at the rock in the middle of the tank with the long white line marked across it....same in both tanks. =)
My fellow Americans I implore you! (part 1) 
or whatever.... How is that tank possible?
