lighting for a 55 gallon

[jed11]

i was wondering if cf 260watts is enough to grow jungle val., african fern, anubias, java moss, red ludwigia, and amazon swords

 

[schaadrak]

Oh yeah. Plenty.

with that much light are you planning to use co2/ferts?? thats 5wpg and without any of those 2 things you will be growing an algae farm. Try and cut that wattage by half

 

[jed11]

ya i'm planning on using co2 and ferts. so 260watts is good enough were i could grow any plant?

 

[DABoepple]

i think you could prrobably grow a tree with that much light lol

 

[WyldFya]

You will be able to grow a lot, but not everything.

Nice to see somebody starting out right
instead of trying to squeek by on 1WPG.
