Just scooped up two mangroves from lfs. I have them suspended with Styrofoam in my second chamber. Their is cheato back their too. The question is will this light work mounted above the mangroves. It's a 7w compact fluorescent by bright effects at lowes. Their is also a nanoglo light in the back as well for the cheato. The glo doesn't really reach high enough to the tops of the groves. Or should I use just a typical house 60 watt bulb. And, since the new energy efficient bulbs are similar to fluorescent lighting would one of those be even better..hhrrmm
