I'm fairly new to the aquarium hobby and looking for advice on lighting. I recently purchased a 48" Beamswork LED light fixture. 162 10000k (white) LEDs and 12 Actinic (blue) LEDs produce 900 lumens. All in hope to fully sustain a 60 Gal. Planted tank. Will that be sufficient for thriving plant growth or will I need to upgrade?.
the kelvin rating is ok not ideal you want closer to 6500k to be ideal, and I am going to go out on a limb and say at best it is low to med light at best...... rather low in the lumen department
