Yes these are mine. What are you running?
Nothing atm. I am building a tencor 5g acrylic tank and want the mangrove to be the focus of the tank. It will get moved when/in the need arises. Always wanted a mangrove never had a good place for one. I plan on a few inverts. 1 fish and maybe some coral but nothing that will need more light then what the mangrove needs. Thinkging xenia, gsp, weed zoas. I have a clip shade so I was thinking grow bulb of some sort that wold just screw in. But amazon is overwhelming.

I am using a couple of these on some plants. I have one over a monstera and one over a fig tree in my fish room. I have mine about 3' away.

When I had mangroves in my old old sump, they grew like weeds under a red light. I don't think they're particularly picky to be honest. I've picked pods up off the ground near the old canal we lived by and tossed them in the sump with growth and nothing to hold them steady.

There won't be anything that needs more light than a mangrove needs. The question is what can withstand the par a mangrove needs
