I got the 2 x 55w kit from http://www.ahsupply.com/ for my 29 gallon tank and they have been running for 7 month with no problems. the bulbs i got where the 10000k/deep blue 03 combo.

I just have a regular florescent bulb in my sump and my cheato is not growing.

I was thinking about getting the 1 x 13w kit. would this be enough light to grow the cheato? and what color bulb would be the best? 6700k?

thanks

Go to Walmart and buy a 26w 6500k daylight bulb(screw in flourscent) and cheap clamp light and that is all You need.And You will spend less than 10 bucks!!!Works great.My chaeto grows like mad under it!
