Marine land double bright

[Nathenrauch]

Can the Marine land double bright grow live plants?

Even though it says double bright, it is still low light in all but the very shallowest of tanks. ie, 12" tall or less. OS.

I agree with OS. It's not the best choice if you want LED in a planted tank. What size tank will this be on?

Finnex, Current, and BuildMyLED.com all offer much better fixtures for planted tanks IMO.

Check out the Finnex Fugeray Planted+ or Current Satellite LED+. If you want high light, check out the Ray 2 or BuildmyLED.com.

I'd go with the Planted+ version. The Actinic is way too blue for FW plants... It's going to make colors look washed out.

What lighting range would that put me at In a ten gallon?

I had the double bright unit. Nothing grew, its junk. A coralife t5ho setup is fairly cheap and works... I may have an older one around here somewhere ...

Let me know if u do

My guess would be medium.

If you want high light, you can get the Finnex Ray 2 with all daylight 7,000K LEDs. However, I think the Planted+ would give you a warmer color in which the 660nm red diodes should help colors pop more.
