I'm pretty sure my thinking on this is sound for now, but I want to double check anyways.
I have a 20L brackish tank that I'm considering planting. I've already decided on some Java moss and Java fern, b/c they're low light low maintinance and can tolerate brackish. However, I'd like other plants that can do well with brackish. My current light is just a plain 1 bulb full range 17Watt light. Normally I would suppose I should follow the 1 WGP rule, but since the height of the tank is the same as a 10 gallon, could I easily get away with using 20 watts for a well lit planted tank?
