Lighting Help

Recommended Posts

I have a AquaTopia Aura 20l tank which I am in the process of doing up into either an YCS or Chameleon only tank which will be fully planted, at the moment I have Elodea, Blyxa, Hornwort, Ambulia, Reinekii and have Milfoil, Needle Leaf Java Fern and Cardamine Lyrata to go in soon, in regards to lighting the bulb in there at the moment is 9 watts, to me it isn't quite bright enough for viewing although I'm sure growth will be fine, my question is what wattage should I look at using in this tank?

How long is the tank ?

I always recommend the pro z series

Awesome led light

 

The tank is a AquaTopia Aura 20l, just one of those all in one tank, has a 9w globe in the lid.

hey crabs what kind of globe is it? I would have thought 9 watts should be good enough for a little 20 litre tank ?
