Hi, I have a 20g high, which I bought as a kit, and it came with a standard 15W bulb. Not sure about any specs, but it is the normal, 2 prong bulb.
I had a minorly planted tank (2-3 plants) before, and the plants seems anemic.
What is the next step up in lighting?
I saw a 65W Satellite setup for $65 online. However, I think I would need CO2 with that, and I want to move in baby steps.
The LFS recommended a 15W, but with 10K, which I believe is something to do with colors? Not sure what that would do for plants ...
One other question: the Satellite setup seems to sit on feet above the tank, leaving the water exposed. Should there be a cover over the water? I currently have a full hood.
