I know people use PAR now because different types of lighting have different wpg for how much light they put off but I don't have something to measure the par so I was wondering what wpg I should do specifically for fluorescent lights. This is not really even an aquarium, it is a 10 or so gallon 1 foot tall rubbermaid container simply for growing aquarium plants that I sell. I have a diy co2 system that blows co2 in the powerhead and there are 2 regular household light bulbs I an using. The plants I think or narrow leaf java fern and a white ribbon plant (I just figured out they aren't even aquatic when I looked up the name ) and they are eating up the co2 and making bubbles just fine. I want to add java moss on some drift wood to crap and some baby tears for a carpet.
