I have a freshwater fish tank. I have jardini and a few plants in there. want to upgrade in my light fixture. woulld 10k and moon light type light be okay for it?
 
10k and moon lighting is for reaf setups. That fish needs coverand natural light as they are VERY skittish. Look for a light in the 4500k to 6000k spetrum. Depending on your tank size the wattage will also be very inportant, but I like to error on the low side for a more natural look. If you are trting to show off color, go brighter and maybe add an actinic or even a black light to the equation.:cool:
 
ive never owned an arrow but they are jumpy i would reccomend a lower k bulb say a 6700 k or so it also works for the plants given theres enough of it
