ok sweet - if u had 120 W (3 bulbs) over ur 55g - my next question was
gonna be how u control the algae - hehe - i've got 120 W over my 55g and
am battling cloudy water (green algae) with lights on for only 8 hours per
day - cheers.

==============================
I've gotten rid of green water with nothing more than stepped up partial
water changes. The Vortex DE filter is excellent to remove floating algae.
