Those of you who breed RCS or similar shrimp, how do you light your tank? I have a 20H that will soon be solely for breeding and I would like some advice.

shrimp tanks dont need light. plants need light. plants help keep the water clean and gives the shrimp stuff to eat but again it isnt a must. for a 20 gallon i would get a incandescent hood. i would then put in cfl bulbs in it. my 20 long has 2x23w over it. they are daylight 6500k bulbs.
