I am researching a lighting upgrade. I have a 40g tall planted tank. Which would be better for plants? i do not want to do co2 btw.
the LED I was looking at is a Marineland with these specs
24"-36" - (8) 1 Watt daylight LED's, 4 Lunar LED's, 600 Lumens PAR/LUX at 24" is 19/1750.

this one...it's Marineland too and says it has 42 LED's at 4.62W per fixture. 990 LUX and 310 Lumens. Could I mount this in the light strip that fits on my hood?? And would it be too much light for a non-co2 tank?

the t5 would be 2x24W
Any input is appreciated.
