I bought a light fixture and the lights are 65w 12000k x2 and 65w true actinic x2. is this good for a 75g without co2 with plants for about a few months untill i do get the co2?

well pretty much the actinic bulbs are useless for freshwater plants.. and as far as the 120 k bulbs... u want to stay within the 65k to 100 k range for plants

Not completely true.
well pretty much the actinic bulbs are useless for freshwater plants.
I agree Actinic Are Pretty much useless They might help a little But both of those bulbs are pretty high in color. I would change out the actinics For 2x65 watt 6500k or somewhere around there.
is there any other kind that would be best to replace it with.
