ohh, and the temp in my tank is not that high beacause of my light bulbs (flouresent), is beacause of the environmental temp, that raises over 40 C in the summer, and i read in the discussion of summer temps, that to turn off the lights will decrease a little the temp, but what to do in a planted tank...?

how do you get 150 watts, the most common light bulbs here are the 20 watts you can find 40 watts lamps only in total home (mexican home depot), do you use several of that type or how do you get 150 watts?...

i bought a tank cover with two biolux light bulbs, and they are 20 watts each for a 35 G tank, it seems bright enought for humans at least, should i change them...?
