Title: Lighting Options 37g tall
Post by: noahcw on November 30, 2020, 12:36:16 PM

Hello everyone,

I am seeking advice on some lighting options for a 37g tall aquarium. I was hoping to be able to grow some plants but the 30 inch led bar I am currently using does not produce near enough light. I was thinking I may try and DIY with some normal bulbs, and I've had trouble finding a T5 fixture that would fit. Any ideas would be great.

You won't really find much T5 light fixtures that are 30" wide. This is because they don't make T5 bulbs that length, they are 24" and then 36" but nothing in between. But there is presently someone on Kijiji selling an older Zoomed 30" light fixture and it uses 24" bulbs.
