Hey Guys,

I'm just about ready to set up my AC70 fuge mod. I already mod'd it and I just got a light from Finnex. It's the 21 LED clamp on light. Will this be enough light to grow my Chaeto? I have included a pic from my iPhone.

BTW here's the link to the item on Finnex's website: http://www.finnex.net/index.php?option=com...1&Itemid=61 (http://www.finnex.net/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&category_id=4&product_id=264&Itemid=61&vmcchk=1&Itemid=61)

I have two of these led boards on the back of mine and chaeto grows like crazy. I'm using the S4 SMD led module, total of 8 leds (probably 1/4w each or something)

Hmmm... So if my light is as bright or a little less than yours, it should be ok then?

i am using the exact same light on my ac70. my cheato wasn't growing for other reasons, but i think it's plenty of light for it.

It's growing slowly. There may be other reasons for slow growth, but I think this is way more than enough light.
