Hi guys, I am planning on setting up a 150L (39.6 us gallons) long aquarium, I will be having platies as the fish and maybe some snails. The tank will be light to moderately planted and the plants will be Java Fern, Java Moss and Anubias species attached onto some bog/drift wood and aquarium safe rocks. The inner dimensions of the tank are 902mm (35.5") long, 454mm (17.8") high and 368.5mm (14.5") wide. So as the title says, what lights would yous recommend? Because I am really not sure on what to choose. I have read about PAR, PUR and some other aspects of lighting, such as kelvin and lumens, but still quite stumped. I also read that watts/gal is not good enough to use any more, how true is this? :) Thanks in advance people.
 
All lower light plants so yeah the finnex would be good. I have the 24/7 planted+ really nice dimmable customizable remote control all kinds of cool features.
