Well I have just started to look at a new light for my 88L as I have a new hood arriving the next couple of days and wanted an idea of cost etc.. (im in the UK).
I am completly baffled by what light is the best the get!! i was advised on a previous thread for a 20watt col temp 6500K as I would like a planted tank, however when I've looked they have hues and different types etc...I am completely baffled now! :ermm:

can anyone offer some advice on what to get? Do I get a normal on or a coloured one?
:facepalm:

The hood is 30"x12" and ill have guppies, corys, ottos and a dwarf gourami eventually

:thanks:
 
Ok so i've picked my plants, java fern, cryptocoryne parva, wisteria and lindernia rotundiflora. From what I've read they are med light plants. Can anyone give me an idea of what type of bulb I should get??
