    Would you live in a moderate size house with no bathroom? if not, then do what is right! Let your tank cycle for one month. Respect the fish! ;)

    rluix,

    A couple things for you to consider,

    1) you are in euro. make sure the light you order will run off you power supply here in the U.S. we run 110/120, you guys run 220. I just recently helped someone out who didn't check and fried a power head. Becareful.

    2) the free shipping you mention is only for the 48 cont. states shipping fed-x ground, you are not gonna get free shipping to Portugal, you will pay quite a bit to get a fixture shipped from the states, if it matches you power supply

    Just some food for thought
    Tanks,
    Robert

    I discovered my LFS has a fixture that will do, its 4x24 watts T5 fixture, with 2 Actenic(?) bulbs and 2 10K bulbs.

    Just about the same price.

    You'll be very pleased with the T-5's, I know I am, I've got some frags that have turned absolutely spectacular under the T-5's and they are on the bottom of the tank.....
