Evening all. So, my girlfriend and I recently got a 100 gallon tank that came with a 4x54w light strip measuring out to 48", and I was wondering what kind of bulbs we should be using for it.
It came with 2 12,000k bulbs and two actinics (and 4 moon leds, if you really want to count them, lol). I was thinking of getting 2 6,700k bulbs and maybe 2 Colormax, but I'm not too sure.
It's meant to be a planted tank. Besides, I could really use some advice as to turn my girlfriend away from the actinics. She loves them, but IMO, they make everything too blue and wipe out the colors. That, and from what I've read they do nothing for freshwater.
What would you guys do?
