I’m looking for a light for my 6 gallon pico tank that will primarily have macroalgea and Xenia. I’ve been reading up on lighting and supposedly need a 10,000 k color temp but only like 15 watts?!?? (I am soooo not knowledgeable about the specs on lighting).
I can’t find anything like that. Could I get some recommendations please? I’m looking for something that isn’t too blue, and maybe has some reddish pinkish tones, and isn’t too strong for such a small tank (please don’t make fun of me for not being able to describe this lol).
I really appreciate any advice
Right now I have the 9 watt version of this and it’s definitely not strong enough, it barely lights up the cube: https://a.co/d/0dDGYsBH
Nothing is in it yet except live rock and whatever came on it, plus a single red macroalgae I bought so I have a little time to find something. It’s a new tank. And of course less expensive is better but am open to all suggestions.
