If you click on my profile and look at my album titled "55g with pendant leds" you can see what a 55 looks like with 2 of these bulbs. I grow anubias, crypts, java fern, and vals in this tank. I don't have any par data but I'd guess I am low or low-med light. I would think 4 on a 40 breeder would be high light but that's just a guess.
