Off to a great start Lestie - loving the tight short internodes. You see that with T5 lights often so youre doin great.

Where did you get that bucket? I'm looking for a 15 or 20 gallon one with a split lid like yours. I wanna use it as a small res. I did a websearch for 15g black dog food bucket (per your desc. LOL) and only got a bunch of crap.
