I am in the process of setting up a 40b tank. Have been thinking about trying my first planted tank. Was thinking low tech, low lighting to start off. Java fern java moss anubias for start was the idea. I wanted to make sure this tank was covered, so I've got a versa top for it. Now that I thought about doing a planted tank I don't know about lighting options with the versa top. I have found aqueon and marineland basic double lamp fixtures that can sit right on the versa top that would probably provide enough for low light. But I also feel that if the fixture sat on the back half of the tank, the front wouldn't get enough lighting. Also I don't really trust these fixtures, after reading reviews, to last very long. But all of the t5ho etc fixtures sit on legs that don't look compatable with a versa top. Is this correct? any ideas?
Thanks!
Thanks!
