Hi!
I'am a complete beginner and I wonder of you could help me now when I'm preparing for my first aquascape?
I have a 50 liter aquarium (60*30*30) and the original lamp (in the hood) is only 7W and 900 lumen. So I thought that I perhaps need to buy a new stronger lamp and have been looking at the Chihiros LED system series wrgb 2. Do you think I should buy that or is my old lamp ok to start an easy-plant aquascape? Or should I buy a cheeper white-led lamp – perhaps I won’t see any difference?
If I buy a new strong light I am afraid I will get algiers… If I increase the light will not the risk of algiers rise?
I have not yet decided what plants to buy, but I want to have some beautiful red ones in the future...
And anther concern I have is that if I buy a lamp that does not have a hood (I know I have to do that ) will not my Amano shrimps run away then?
