Not sure if this is a good indicator but I'm getting bubbling from my Vallisneria Spiralis (if my identification is correct) and Hemianthus Callitrichoides (HC).

Started out with 1 LED Lamp and bubbling was evident from my Vallisneria Spiralis 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.

So ur son likes it??

Back to the topic of LED lights the new LED lights by ELOS is really neat and expensive!

I suggest you not using CO2 tablets, they take in bicarbonates to form co2 and this reduces the ph and kh

The ELOS tanks are really nice indeed. Very clean and neat.

Hi BuTLeR,
I am using 2 x Dymax Robot LED (28 LEDs)/lamp on a 1.5 gallon tank - The same one you were asking about.
