I'm putting together a small fun tank near my quarantine set up for mangroves. I would like to encourage growth and do what's best for the mangroves. I would like to get a kessil h80 to speed up the growth, but I haven't seen a lot of people using these lights for mangroves. My question is would either the h80 or h380 really be ideal for their growth or should i have something more similar to daylight leds. Let me know your thoughts.
 
I know its not exactly your question, buuuut, I started mangroves in the display with a mars aqua. At the same time i started mangroves in my fuge with a grow light. I havent seen a difference in growth between those two. But im running really low nutrients too so the growth is slow. Then at work i have mangroves with daylight T5's that are growing slower, and mangroves in a betta tank with just sunlight, growing ok
 
Here are my mangroves...

Kessils seem too red to enjoy. I’d try the AI Prime Freshwater.
