Hey all,
It's been a while since I've had a freshwater tank, and my last attempt was a freshwater stingray tank (successful, too!). But Now I have a much more limited budget, and would like to set up a ten gallon planted tank if possible.
The last thing this tank had in it was a nano-reef, so the first question I have concerns lighting. The hood that I built has a 98w power Quad in it. That works to 9.8wpg, which is... well, a lot. What are the problems I Will have with this high level lighting?
Will this be a large enough problem that I will need to switch lighting? At this point I don't even know what fish/plants I'm thinking of (other than coolie loaches).
TIA,
Chris
