Metal halides would be overkill (maybe literally) for mushrooms. The only mushrooms that require high intensity lighting are ricordea, and even then MH over 11" of water would probably be extreme.</description><pubDate>Tue, 08 Apr 2008 04:11:05 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Nep2Ns PlumR</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: lighting needs</title><link>http://board.fishchannel.com/Topic146029-26-1.aspx</link><description>A single bulb seems too low to me, but a twin tube fluorescent should be fine. I have mine under PCs, so they definitely don't need MH.</description><pubDate>Mon, 07 Apr 2008 21:10:22 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Hailey</dc:creator></item><item><title>lighting needs</title><link>http://board.fishchannel.com/Topic146029-26-1.aspx</link><description>can i keep mushrooms under a flourescent single bulb lighting system or do i need metal halides the tank is quite shallow about 11 inches.</description><pubDate>Mon, 07 Apr 2008 21:03:19 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>blenny123</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
