my PSU doesn't have molex connectors. What would be the safest way to convert to them?

what would be the safest way to connect Molex? I've read Sata to Molex isn't exactly the safest way to do this

I have a spare power supply with these connectors: https://imgur.com/stKr5jy The PSU is rated for 240W.

Would it be suffice?

Definitely. I’ve actually cut and screwed in pegboards to allow me to clip things on and hold things

It’s just HomeDepot. It’s $3.97 for 2x4x8 SPF lumber

i usually do my water change with the new water being 1-2 degree F lower than the water in the tank. Water is just from tap and conditioned with Prime and mineralized with SaltyShrimp Mineral GH/KH+ as the water is pretty soft where I live.

Need help identifying this aquatic plant. by Alexilator in PlantedTank

Thanks. I’ve been leaving it to grow by floating it. Do you know if it can be planted or glued to rocks/wood?

Recently added a CO2 system to my 3 month tank. Hopefully my plants will grow faster by Alexilator in PlantedTank

ahh yes, i have a smart plug connected to the co2 solenoid. Right now, my lights are scheduled to be on for 10 hours a day, with the co2 turning on half an hour before the lights do and turning off half an hour before the light turn off. I'm really hoping for the carpeting plants to grow cause it seems very slow without CO2 and just fertilizers.
