Lighting

Post by SGTSHEW »

So what type of lights are you all using? I'm changing over to an acrylic someday and want my setup to look a bit more appealing. I'm currently using two Dennerle Nano 5.0 watt Power LED at 6500 Kelvin on a 10g tank. I don't get much noticeable algae growth but my inhabitants I'm sure are just doing a good job of keeping everything clean. I mowed the lawn today. Pics below of the before and after. I'm proud of my chaeto.

I'm just using LED lights from Home Depot and Costco. :) The shrimp don't really need fancy lights, anything out there will pretty much grow algae and macroalgae.
