    Its a small screen, reflectors dont fair as well on the small screen as the light spills off of the screen. The spotlight CFL gets more of the light onto the screen.

    For the test, did you use only one light?

    Yes, the one bulb. On ones before this I did various setups, but no pics of them.

    Doesnt all the air bubbles cause a scum on the water surface? (Like a skimmer)

    Mines slightly different as I have bucket loads of micro bubbles, but I get no scum either.

    have you tried your other design? the one that is diagonal and in the corner of the sump. would you say corner one is more effective than the design you did in this thread even if a reflector was placed on the other side. wondering if it is worth getting the second bulb instead of using just one.
