    light

    Hi
    a quick question about 1 sided or 2 sided, having the light on one side and a mirror on the other, does this make it 2 sided?
    Thx

    Sort of. Officially yes but the intensity on the reflected side is drastically reduced.

    Probably another dumb question, but here goes anyway!!!

    Is it better to have to much light (led's) and if it burns the algae just cut back on the lighting time rather than make it, and then find you don't have enough light????
    Thx

    Thx Garf for the earlier reply.

    SM, is this months release ready? Should be this right?

    Hang-On-Glass (HOG) Scrubber, version 2

    This is designed to be a manufactured version of version 1, for nano's only, and thus is the first retail-ready version to be posted. If made with the right finish, it will fit right in with everything else in the tank and will not be noticed (and actually it could add to the appearance of the nano). For DIY there will be a slimed-down version, but it will still take some building. For DIY Resellers, the slimed-down version will take a little work (at least for nano's). For manufacturers it is probably a three-piece molding. The nice-looking version would retail in the range of about $29 USD for a 0.1 cube/day, to about $69 for a 2.0 cube/day (lights included, but no air pump).

    Will be posted in August
    Available for advance viewing in May, $1000/month non-exclusive, $2000/month exclusive
    Will be available in August for free DIY (difficult) and $5 DIY Resellers
    Available in May for exclusive product licensing in any country except USA
    Available in May for non-exclusive product licensing in any PCT country except USA
    Available in May for exclusive brand licensing in any country except USA
    Available in May for non-exclusive brand licensing in any country except USA
    Available in May for manufacturing/marketing/distribution licensing in the USA
