Fuge lighting opinon needed

[diverrk]

I have the small Aquafuge 13" L x 4.5" W x 12" T . I have a Mini Compact Fluorescent 10w 50/50, 20w 50/50 and 24w 6500k. I'd prefer to use the 10w, but wondering how the chaeto would grow with it.

So whats everyones opinons on that.



Thanks
Rich

i only use diy-homemade 6.5K homedepot compact fluorescent bulbs in my fuge. my experience is okay can not say for sure my chaeto has suffered or benefitted from it.

Any small CF should do the trick .

I've used a CF for three years now with pretty good results. My cheato grows well under it.
