I think you missed a few there, Samo.

It really depends, how far below 2WPG are you?

I have a sunglo light that is 20w in a 36g so that is about .5wpg. Is this even enough light for plants? It is pretty bright.

 

[ShoC]

have you not seen the posts showing many plants growing in low light even tho many claim they are high light?

George Farmer has a very nice tank which is low light. I think your light may still be on the low side of low light though
