I'm tearing down my 3 gallon reef (glass rimless JBL bowfront tank) and moving all the inhabitants back to my main reef tank and turning the 3gallon into a planted tank. I'm really interested in small compact growing plants but I'm concerned about lighting.
2 x 18w Current USA power compacts... 36watts total. Is that too much for HC and other small plants? Also my bulb configuration is one 10K bulb and another 50/50 (actinic and daylight 10k), is this ok or should I replace them with more 6500?
Also, any diy guidance for c02 build using a small bottle would be much appreciated!
Any nano planted tanks to show off? feel free to post them for my inspiration
