thank you for your advice but I do have a question about T 5 spectrums? what would you recommend the 10 K super day light and UV bulb?

you're gonna get a lot of fast growth with dwc.... you're def gonna want more light in there. Look into getting some CFLs they're cheap

its a t5 fixture and t5 fluorescents right now. I was recommended those bulbs because i'm not sure what i'm doing yet. more light? do mean by the lumens? or the light schedule? it gets hot so i have to vent the tent. The water is avg 74-75 degrees. Ill take a pic of the light fixture next time. thank you

t5s are great don't get me wrong, you can just add CFLs for side lighting to get light to the lower branches and such.

your gonna want your res temperature lower than 7 too btw, pythium love it warm like that
