well, I think I am going to continue with this experience for now, simply because I already own most of the material being used, and I am quite sure it will be years before I any plants I buy will be big enough to warrant the size of even a small refrigerator...
it is certainly a more ideal solution... but I am trying to do something really inexpensive here with pre-owned equipment that requires very little modification... I just don't want to get into wiring thermostats and such at this point...
besides... this is kinda fun... I like experimentation!
Daytime temp with the shades closed today, is holding at 80 degrees, so we are doing a lot better today without the sunlight filtering in... of course, I think the tank is not getting enough light from the two lamps on it, so there is still some adjustment to do...
Anybody think that two tube 24" fixture will provide enough light for judith finn?
