In addition, Emperor filters are notorious for off gassing CO2 mostly because of their bio-wheels.
How long will your photoperiod be?

About 10 hours. I was considering 2 but I was told from afew seperate sources that I would only need 1.
It's not a problem to take the bio wheels off either. How much lower should I go with the lights to be able to still grow med. to high light plants. And should I use something like SeaChem Excel to supplement the Co2 and carbon?
Thank you for your feed back!
