I usually mix a Plant&Aquarium bulb with a Full Spectrum
bulb in a two-bulb light fixture. In my main planted tank,
I have two warm-daylight bulbs, one plant&aquarium and
one full-spectrum. On the small 10G planted, I get better
results with a plant&aquarium bulb. I don't get good
plant growth with a warm-daylight bulb only.
