Light for planted 2ft

[newihz]

Hi everyone. Can I have a recommendation with respect to the type of light best suited for a planted 2ft? I intend to keep plants like nana, java moss, amazon swords.

Thanks in advance.

Not sure about amazon swords but for nana and java moss, 24watt T5HO should be more than enough

Amazon swords requires at least 2 watts per gallon of full spectrum lighting .
I had them before in my tank.

I am using T5HO 24W too, but the bulb they come in are aquazonic 12000K. Seems like it is better to change to 6500K bulbs.

12k good for marine. 6500k good for plants.
Anyway when i had my amazon swords i used t5 tube
and my watt per gallon is about 1.8watts.
