I'm thinking about keeping my moss in a 6500k high output light. My tank is 3 gallons. I want to know if this is a good idea to keep the moss in?

What kind of bulb is it? T5, T8, CFL, LED, T5HO? You need CO2 in a high light tank to prevent algae.

Good if you balance out the ferts and CO2. Bad if things are not in balance. Taking algae off of moss is a pain.

When mine was attacked by an algae, I almost tore the plant because of the algae. Some times it can also trap dirt and become dirty though.
