    Just out of curiosity, what is the highest wattage of light you guys have ever used for a non-CO2 tank without having a major algae outbreak.

    For me, the highest was a 55W pl light for a 2ft tank. But I only have 8 fishes in my tank (4 platies + 4 cardinals) with 20+ Shrimps (cherries & yamatos) with Taiwan moss and hairgrass + E.Tenellus.
