HI!
Question for everyone that knows about lighting. I have a 20 gallon tank that is mostly a catfish tank (there is also 10 serpaes in the tank). Catfish tend to like dimmer lighting situations. I have LOTS of hiding places and my petricola come out rarely in the day.
Question is: I have a 50/50 coralife on my 60 gallon and works great. However, for my 20 gallon, I would like a dimmer light. Would a Coralife Actinic blue light show any change of behavior in the petricola catfish? Since it will be darker, they should be happier. BUT what about the serpaes? would they mind the light loss?
I know, in general, catfish likes it when its dark (nocturnal). Usually pure Actinic blue light is for saltwater (im sure FW also) that live in water at depths of 30 feet and more. Would this type of light work for my tank? and if its GREAT for mt petricolas, what problems would occur by the serpaes? Thanx...
