Hi all,
I had so many tanks when younger but boy have times moved on. I'm having fits with lighting. To get my wife into aquariums and in particular planted tanks I bought her a 15 gal tank for her own. Yeah it is small but I can already see she's into it. Which means a bigger tank in my future. Its important this one is successful.
dimensions: 24 inch length 12 inch width 12 inch tall. It came with the bog standard leds. I also added a juwel novolux 60 cm 8 watt led strip.
I have read all the posts saying WPG is out dated so what do I do with LEDS? I cant afford a par meter. Tempted to go back to tube lights just so I know how many watts etc I've got.
Can anyone suggest a decent light for this tank.
Stock: java ferns, crypts, some aponogetans, and maybe a few large leafed lily types.
Much appreciation in advance.
