Got myself some chaeto. Due to budget and availability, I pilfered a 1200w light from my “tomatoes”, until I can source a proper chaeto light, as I understand it, it requires a slightly different spectrum from terrestrial plants. I have also noticed that most lights I see are in the single or double digit watts, namely the 18w IM Chaeto light I was looking at. Makes me wonder if this 1200w light is way too powerful and will burn the algae? Though my fuge is also massive, like 25 gallons.
So, will I kill my macro using this light, or is it fine to use in the meantime?
