Kelvin Rating For Plants....

[BigIan]

I`ve been looking at some Led lighting for a new tank and found out my options are 10.000k or 3.000k wich would be better???

kelvin doesnt matter, it is what colour you prefer. the pink colours (<4000k) white colours (>10 000k). As ong as you have enough light then dont worry.

A bulb with a kelvin of around 600k is usually reccomended not because it suits plants, but it is to pink or white so it gives off the plants natural colours.

thank ye kindly good sir.

go for the 10,000K

I personnaly like the 10,000k look better, but it depends on your opinion
