I currently have a community tank as shown in my signature. It has been running for 5 1/2 months and I think the time is right to try to go with live plants. After doing some research into what I have a couple ways I can go. I would also like some type of night light also. For my size tank (30" long) I have found 55w and 65w fixtures. Will this be enough for plants requiring moderate lighting? That's about 2 watts/gallon which from my research should be enough. Correct me if I am wrong. For the moon light I can go with either an LED setup or have a double strip with one of the bulbs being an actinic or other blue light. Any recommendations either way? LED would be much cheaper but would it provide the same affect?
Thanks,
Karl
