Returning to a planted tank after a few years and the choice of lighting is a bit overwhelming
So the tank is 100 x 45 x 45 cm filtered by an external.
CO2 will be added and a sandy substrate used. I have an RO so I can mix this with the hard tap water here in East Sussex if needed.
I would like to keep a mix of plants, some of which require high lighting. Fish would largely be based around 30 Harliquins and maybe a small group of Apistos.
Lighting is a minefield. Would prefer to keep away from tubes and I like the look of the full length LED's with a spectrum that is suitable for both green and red plants.
Any suggestions? Happy to spend a bit of cash on them (within sensible reason). Tank can be open topped.
Thank you
