These cheap ones that have really weak lights in them that can't support plants.
I searched for plastic ones on amazon then google. Not seeing a thing.
This is the one I have. https://www.amazon.com/Marineland-Light-Hood-30-Inch-12-Inch/dp/B00474BN1K?th=1&psc=1
What should I have had purchased?
I am fairly new to this so my friend who also posts here, her tank http://i.imgur.com/e2A1RBO.jpg , has been pmuch holding my hand the entire way. My plants were all selected for a low light setting since I am doing this on a small budget but this is the lighting I am currently using http://amzn.com/B00474BN1K. My lighting schedule is to have the led's on 10 hours a day with natural light coming in through the window as well and then swapping my led's to the "night time" setting when I go to bed. I will be adding a few guppies to my tank this week to cycle it in preparation for the Crowntail or Halfmoon Betta I am getting...haven't made my mind up yet.
$64 is pushing my budget, since also I have a 10 gallon that might need lights. (no plants in there yet) Got any other recommendations? I might need to get a job just to take care of my tanks XD. If there are cheaper diy solutions (possibly led?), I could probably do that, I have a soldering iron. edit: What about this? and this?
Thanks! I forgot to mention how much I love serpae tetra as well and hope to include them.
Any suggestions for a hood? This Marineland LED has some questionable reviews but I'm having trouble finding suitable alternatives.
Looks like the Aquaclear HOB would be a little large for the hole in that particular hood (6.5" pre-cut hole and the filter says 7") but I'm not afraid to cut it to make it larger. I suppose if I get a submersible heater there's no other equipment that would require additional holes hole to be cut into the hood, right?
Any heater preferences?:
