Give my shrooms some light

As any of you that have checked my posts know I'm as bad as Mr krabs when it comes to a dollar so my cakes are busy consolidating whilst I've been building my SGFC all done except the light I'm a bit short of $ to fork out for a light next week and was wondering if I could just hang this half off of the turtles tank and place the FC on the side so its completely under the light
 The lights oversized for just my 1 turtle so won't bother him hanging half of it off and yes I'll take it off wall so FC can work properly

Sometimes, late at night. I just stare at them And use the light Of my soul It's beautiful actually.
I'm OK to admit this now.

Maybe it's just the angle but it doesn't look like nearly enough water in there for your turtle.

You want 6500K range for mushrooms. I like to use shop lights stood up.
But you can get a CFL, and just use whatever lamp fixture you have handy. The turtle can keep his lamp

Do you rotate your tubs a lot? They look like they grow up pretty straight despite all the light to one side.
I've started moving my tubs downstairs after first flush to make room. Not a lot of light down there just what comes in through the window bays during the day. I need to find an easy light rig to help them along or I'm going to have some spindly looking shrooms

The light on the side of the tubs is fine, but when I stand the light up in a corner like that the top tub is a bit further from the light than the bottom, last grow the top tub had all the fruits leaning pretty hard.
Its better to stand the light up straight against the wall like this photo, they all get even light. Only thing is for safety you should attach the light to the wall somehow
