Hey Guys
So I have been trying to decided on lighting for a long time now, plants I plan to use are low to med requirements, Dupla root ferts without a C02.
I am trying to decided between a LED light and a T5 my tank is 24 inch deep which is why I think from what I understand the LED might be better? The light will be 0.8 Feet smaller then my tank but
I believe I can always add another 1 F LED to the system as its modular?
heres a link to LED

Pretty sure I need red and white not blue? I don't understand any of this light stuff well :confused1: here I was thinking learning plants was the hard part.
This would be the T5

Price is not really a problem, I just want good results and easy setup, The long lasting and moon lights also seems interesting but I don't really understand much, I tried researching but everything was in too much depth
PARs and all?
From what I gather PAR is the amount of light that reaches the ground per a certain area?
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
