    130 watt PC lights for 29 gallon tank???

    Hey all,

    I'm in the process of setting up my 29 gallon tank here and need some help with the lighting. Right now, I'm staring at a CSL 24inch 2 x 65 watt PC lighting for the tank. That'll be about 4.8 watts per gallon, sound about right? I think the lighting amount is ok, but my main concern is heat. The hood comes with built in fans, but will that be enough to keep the heat at a minimum? Thanks for any help!

    The PCs run really cool, you shouldn't have much concern. I have 2x55 PCs, 1 400MH and 1 250MH over my 30. There's a big fan blowing over them, so the water stays within range, it's just my bedroom that's a sauna.
