Ok guys so I just recieved my new light fixture, but it came with one pink bulb and one 12000k bulb and they say it is full spectrum for planted tanks. I have been reading and have heard that the pink bulb doesn't do anything for plants and the 12000k bulb is too high for freshwater plants. Should I buy two 6700k bulbs and just replace these?
My tank is about two ft. deep its a 65 gal and I have several different kinds of plants. Riccota indica I hope will turn red, amazon swords, Anubias nana, giant hairgrass and a ton of java ferns. I do not have co2 in tank I think that plays a factor in high lighting also and at this time I don't have the money to mess with that. I do use co2 boost though, if anyone can help I really appriciate it. thanks
