Anubis nana petite is one of the main plants I would like to use. It seems like a good plant for the kuhlis I plan on getting once I get my 55g set up and cycled. Am I wrong in this assumption? Also if you could provide some plant ideas that would be cool. Please and thank you. :)
 
Right now in my 55g I'm rocking some crypts, anacharis, wisteria, jungle val, corkscrew val, anubius nana, and a queen marble sword. All these are under only 2 15w 18" T8 bulbs. The anacharis and wisteria seem to grow pretty fast, the different val coming in close behind.

You can grow anubias in most light setups. I would definitely try to get some full spectrum bulbs, but they really aren't picky, although they will definitely grow faster with more intense light. For a 55g I would probably use a 2x54w T5ho fixture.
