so i just purchased a used 36" x2 92w jbj formosa light from tracyc on the board here. set to be here today 5/20. it's coming with 2 65k bulbs. would these be accectable or should i go with a 10k & true blue combo. i have a 92w 50/50 on my tank now which i am going to keep on the tank with the newER light. i would like to get some low light mushrooms or an anenome down the road.
Ideas?
thanks

The mushrooms should do fine, but I would avoid an anemone with that lighting. You are pretty much at the minimum.

soooooo 65k good or switch them out. sorry that was really my question. 270+ watts no good for an anenome?

I'd go with 50/50s or separate 10,000K/actinic bulbs. What size tank is this? PC lighting is generally not regarded as acceptable for nems.
