Hey guys, I am a bit confused. I want to upgrade my lighting on my tank for Xmas (
). I have a couple options in mind, but I just want to make sure they have enough wattage for my tank. I don't want something that looks nice, it has to be enough light for my plants. Here's what I've got:
60g tank (48in x 31in)
it's heavily planted with swords, wisteria, crypts, etc. Nothing fancy
Right now I've got 94w going from my T8's, so about 1.5wpg
One of the light units is 30w and the other is 35w. Is this going to be enough? what is the exact ratio/difference/whatever between reg lighting like T8's and leds?!?
Any help is really appreciated guys, thanks
