T5HO lighting question

[hemiolopterus]

Hi guys,

Can you advise is a 4 x 54 watt T5HO in a single casing enough for a 4x2x2 ft tank growing glosso or HC? If not, how much tubes should I be using?

Just curious, what can I grow with 4 x 54 watt T5HO?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
JT

for my opinion, i would say it is a bit low lighting for a 2ft height. Maybe your can go for 6 X 54watt or maybe 2 X 150watt MH?

U need to calculated your watt as to 3 watt per gallon
Light: General Guideline 3 Watt per Gallon (approx 3.78 litres)
