Default How much lighting for 4g Finnex?
The stock bulb that came with it died in a matter of weeks sadly. Now I just purchased a Solar hood from Catalina that can hold up to 2 13w bulbs. That's twice the power, not sure if I should use both though. Any suggestions?

Sai Dee,

Do you have a link to the fixture you bought for your finnex. I too have one and the light fixture that came with it will not grow HC to good for me. I was thinking about replacing it.

I'm using it to grow my HC emersed atm, just started so I can't say how good it actually is though.
