I have a 4 x 2 x 2 aquarium that I would like to be planted. I've kept smaller, high light set-ups with DIY CO2 before, but never anything this big. Knowing that I won't be using pressurized CO2, what is a good starting point for low-medium light plants?
 
48" Coralife freshwater power compact. That will put you at 130 watts which will be fine for low-medium lighting.
