AndrewT Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Ive got my green hairy mushrooms near the top of my tank under a 400 watt mh. Is this overkill? also is there anything else that i may want to keeo away from the top of the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Breeze Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 most defiantly overkill. Softies like lower light for the most part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewT Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 Yeah... i was kinda thinking that. im on the fence about what i should do as that rock is supporting a good chunk of my wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Breeze Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 They prolly will adjust to the bright light but they won't open up and extend near as big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caferacermike Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I've seen a lot of mushrooms melt under halides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I have quite a bit of shrooms under MH lighting. What I have seen is they will generally "move" around on the rock until they are happy, sometimes they have even let go of the rock to find another spot. Generally they like non-direct light. Can you put a small rock to sort of shield them some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
