Some 120l Lighting information :)

[Techen]

Hi guys, I've lately ditched my T5s my lido had, Wanted to try the led floodlights. Just curious if you folk think these lights are suitable/powerful for high tech lighting.

Gosun® Super Bright 50W LED Floodlight, CREE SMD5050

It outputs at 4500LM at 6300k. It seems to be turning one of my plants from green to red. I do dose liquid ferts and am about to pick up a FE anyway, But do you guys have any idea if this light would be suitable for the top end of plants? My plan was to buy another for 100w of LED.

Thanks !

And these two pics were taken just now

this is a friends tank his using similar leds to mine. 300l tank his only using 104w .

hey there i think it should be enough for a hightech planted tan. 100w will be too much in my opinion. I made my own led using 1w leds its a 81 w but i only use 60 watts for 5 hours and 2 hours 26w so in total of 7. Used 55 watts in the begining for 4 hours when i tried to change it to 60 watts i got algae so after a month what i did was changed it slowly and added more lighting period to my tank. Here is my tank its 100x40x40 cm 160l tank.
