[Cnidaria] RE: Rearing of Cassiopea

Sat Jul 17 06:18:28 PDT 2004

Dear Justin,

The bulbs are fluorescent. Please forgive me - i do not know the wattage of 
the bulbs. Actually, before they are put in this tank, they are placed in a 
temporary tank with no life-support system. The lights used are the same, 
but the distance is only 20cm. Still, they slowly rot away.

Thank you for your help.

Cheers,
Yihoong
