I am using 3x 2ft LED from NA. Comes in 2ft,3ft and 4ft.
It works pretty well for my tank. |

If NA could get LEDs at 8000k to 10000k, I bet it will sell it hot cakes. But if you do not mind the yellow tinge, then by all means get it! It has been proven to work by some of our aquascapers like Ghim, do check out his tank! |

Just started a 1.5 gallon nano tank (15cm depth) with DIY CO2 injection and 2 set of Dymax LED lights. Each lamp is rated at 1.6W, so the output I'm getting is in the region of 2.1wpg.
Not sure if this is a good indicator but I'm getting bubbling from my Sagittaria Subulata (Dwarf Sagittaria) and Hemianthus Callitrichoides (HC). Started out with 1 LED Lamp and bubbling was evident from my Sagittaria Subulata in the early staged i.e. 3-4 days. Like the fact that it's compact and remains cool but not sure of the long term plant benefits since there's no much product information on the type of LED bulbs used. |

My advice for LED bulb is to check the lumen output as well as spectrum. From what I know those 7.5W LED bulb lumen is much lower than 24W T5HO.
