I have a 20 gallon tank with a fluval co2,and I currently I am using Flora sun 15 watt 18inch. I noticed it makes my tank look like a weirdish brown color,but I also have a spare ultrasun bulb and it looks much better,but which is better for my plants? I want to soon start growing carpet plants. Which is better?
 
Your ok with either. The flora-sun bulb is probably better designed sort of speak for plants, but the ultra will be ok too. I believe its 10k so the wavelengths of light should be helpful for plants and brighter appeal to eye.
 
I had a flora sun bulb but returned it. It was probably fine for the plants but for fish viewing I thought it was dim and the colors did not look right. Blue Danio appeared flesh tone /pink. If I had a two bulb system then I would have kept it.
