[APD] 6 gallon nanocube
Has anyone tried growing plants in the JBJ 6 gallon Nano Cube? It has
18 watts of 5500K CF lighting, which seems rather low for that size
tank. If you did, what grew well? I find that the 2-3 wpg rule breaks
down dramatically for smaller tanks and 18 watts just doesn't sound like
enough light. My 2 gallon hex tank has a 14W spiral 5500K bulb over it
and I can't grow higher light plants like Myriophyllum and
Alternantheria very well. (In case you're wondering, I'm fertilizing
with PMDD and Flourish Excel, so I'm pretty sure it's light.) I really
don't want to buy a $99 tank only to have to jury rig it to get enough
light.
Thanks,
Elaine
