So far in my 90g, I only have my low light plants in for the cycling. Now that the cycle is done, I'm ready to add the others, but the tank only came with a single bulb fixture.

Aside from CO2 needs, which of these fixtures would best suit my set up. Plants range from low to moderate-high light.

^Just a question about this, are reef lights suitable for freshwater planted tanks? I'm looking for something similar to this, with a timer and moonlights included. Plus, these are both in Canada, so free shipping, that's why I ask:D


48" 54W 4PC T5 HO HYDROPONIC GROW LIGHTS PANEL 4FT 48 INCH 216 WATTS 6500K | eBay

Would this work? What if I only used 2 of the daylights, and 1 moonlight so I can utilize the double switches? or should I just use all the daylights, and buy a separate moonlight?

The top of the substrate is 27" from the lighting.

Thanks in advance! I've had a success with planted tanks, but am venturing into more advanced set ups for the first time:D
