Sorry to be another one asking/checking/asking for thoughts about lighting levels but I really want to check this before setting out and then experiencing problems.
Would my 15W Aqua FX tube (Apparently equivalent to a 24W T5 tube) be too much light for a 70L low tech set up, no co2, just excel with mosses, java ferns etc. I plan on making a little wooden case for the tube to be housed in and just rest on the top of the tank. I want to have pieces of mantanzania wood and im worried that because they will be close to the light that algae will grow on them.
Any thoughts and/or suggestions greatly appreciated, Thanks.
