Hey, I'm in the process of setting up my first nature aquarium, just getting all the equipment.
To date I have the following
Aquaone aquanano 55L
ADA Amazonia soil 9L
And this T5 light as hoping with 24W it will be more adequate.

I've ordered an additional T5 Arcadia tropical tube to replace the blue tube that comes with the unit.
Will this unit provide enough light for good growth?
Once the rear filter chamber is took out the equation I reckon the planted part will be around 45 litres for with 24W that gives roughly 1watt per litre?
Any advice is greatly appreciated, don't want to start set up if light isn't going to be good.
Many thank for your help!!
