So I read a lot that people have their lights on a timer so they will turn on and off at certain times on their own. How do you do this?
Like, is a light timer come built in to some tank hoods or do you buy it separately? How does it work?
I feel like this might be a stupid question but I've always been curious... If you can buy a light timer for a regular tank, where would you get one? I wouldn't mind links to one if possible
^ I went out and bought this one about two weeks ago. All you have to do is plug the hood into the little outlet there, set it up, and you're good to go!
Haha, but I have two tanks on one side of the room and two on the other so I would still need extension cords this would be great for when I will likely aquire more tanks, haha!
For like $4 at Osh you can get the same thing, just FYI. There is nothing special about the one the pet stores carry, unless you get something that is super advanced for day/night cycles.
What section of Walmart would I find them?
Walmart is the only store near me. Do all of them work in the same way and can I use extension cords with them?
Thanks!
I only have four tanks and two of them would need to be connected to an extension cord. The other two I could plug directly into the timer. I have two tanks on one side of the room and two on the other... I don't think the lights from the four tanks would even add up to 100watts, lol
