Hi

I have a 20G high freshwater tank with Live plants, I recently switched to Fluval P24 AQUALIFE & PLANT FULL SPECTRUM from Duel T5HO.
I had good plant growth, but now switching to the Fluval P24. Does anyone have any experience with planted tank with this product.

Lighting :Fluval P24 AQUALIFE & PLANT FULL SPECTRUM
Tank : 20G High
Substartae : CaribSea - Eco Complete Planted Black Aquarium Substrate
Filter : Fluval 206 Canister filter

Plants:
Cyperus Helferi
Anubias, Coffeefolia (Anubias barteri v. Coffeefolia)
Aeterophylla (Anubias heterphylla)

Staurogyne repens
Hygrophila Pinnatifida
water wisteria

Fishes
1 x German Blue Ram
6 x Neon
2 x smal angels
2 x Mexican Dwarf Orange Crayfish
1 x chines algae eater

My worry is if the plants will grow good with this LED Fixture.
