all mother plant stretching over the light thankfully i have other light up there the HIDs are already at there max height. gonna be pulling a semi vert. might take out the reflectors.yes my plant will be fine touching the tubes, they stay super cool.

a little update, had a few seedlings die, got my KK replacement and they are already soaking gettin ready to go in the dirt, havent been down to the room for like 4 days about to go down there figure out what going. this i what ive been doing the last 3 days, spent about 100 on a setup that normally runs about 300 for 2 redeared slider turtles.growing has taught me much.

Nice! Have had a few RES myself. Definitely a bit of fun. Is their water really in the 90s? That's quite a bit on the hot side. Feed em anything fun? I use to have a blast going around with a net and tossing pretty much everything I caught into the tank.

no tank is 80 now it was just a bit warm water, i had just bough a canister filter(magnum 350, on a 20gal tank with 10gal in it...upgrading to 55gal cube soon as i find a deal) been feeding them veggies only thier shells are pyrimiding, got em off CL for free cant complain too much, but yeah they both ar eating, the male was the only one eating at first but the female ate today. they both look pretty happy in fact i think they tried to mate to day but i scared them.

but here in a week im gonna head down to a local creek and catch some tadpoles and feeder fish to give them i plant on decking out thier aquarium to basically be a small pond, i want to get a couple more too(2 more when i get the 55 gal) and when i do upgrade ill probably run a MV or MH(megaray)of low wattage

MV would probably be better - you want high UV and heat and the rest doesn't matter so much. Although I assume the Megarays MH has increased UV compared to a standard. How big are they right now? I'm growing in a 40g tank right now which will up my planted tank count to 4. Not sure what I'm going to toss in it. Oh, I'd also recommend grabbing a small thing of repti-cal +. Will last you forever and your turtles will thank you over and over again.
