Hello.
I plan my new 100 * 40 * 40 aquarium, its 160 lit.
I'm thinking between two lamps.
Both of them are cost the same.
The first is a T5 4x39 watts its 156 watts and its 90 cm, (picture one)
The second is 6000K led, 95 cm, and 86.4 watts, and 12960 lumen. (picture two)
I know how to calculate the lighting time, with the t5 ,
160liter=42,26 gallon, =3,69 w/g 24/3,69= its about 6,5 hour/day
but I dont know this calculate with the led lamp.
The 12960/160= 81 lumen/liter but how many hours must I light?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my english. I hope you understeand what i want to write 🙂
