Hello all,
Can't help myself. I feel the need to reply.
I suppose it depends on what you want, and where you are. If you merely want to see and view the fish and don't mind the extra money, by all means, buy the "cool" underwater lights. I'm not sure what benefit they have during the times you cannot see in the water yourself. I fertilize regulary, and only about 18" of water is visible. Not a lot to see. In my opinion, this adds absolutly nothing to the food chain. Does anybody believe otherwise?
Bug lights, under similar conditions, do not offer any more visibility, but they do add something to the food chain. I don't believe they are intended to take the place of or be the only source of food, but can anyone disagree that they do not add some value to fish?
