Don't Waste your Money-Planted LED light

best led light for aquarium plants, Do LED lights help aquarium plants grow?
Comparison of LED lights for planted tank aquarium, Full Spectrum LED lights are best suited for aquatic plants. However some hobbyist use other DIY solutions.
It all depends on what kind of plants you want to grow. I.e. for carpet plants I.e. Cuba, Montecarlo etc. SUNSUN ADE/S is best in my opinion.

For carpet plants best result will be with high end lights having wrgb with high lumen per watt and high Kelvin value like Chihiros WRGB PRO, Week Aqua, Twinstar etc. They are expensive but worth and best part is you can adjust the spectrum and Kelvin value with their app. But of course if one can afford them.

Sir, first I want to say that you have made an interesting video on led lights. Thanks. I have one doubt pls clarify... I have a tank of size 3.5x1.5x2.5ft height. I'm using 4 no's of Hopar T5 bulbs, I cant able to grow red color plants like Ludwigia arcuata "Dark Red", Alternanthera reineckii “mini” and carpet plants too. The plant color not changing to red, its thriving well but appears green. But carpet plants like monte carlo retard growth and melt sometimes I mean there is no healthy appearance of it. I have planned to buy SUNSUN ADS 900. Whats your opinion on red plants? Though I use Excel Iron, Flourish, Calcium and other ferts. Pls help me that my plants will thrive if i use the sunsun lamp.

It's a good light n comes under moderate to High. Which should be good for your setup, however beware of algae outbreak as you are dosing ferts as well. Look for other symptoms too i.e. high nitrates, water hardness etc. I'm not a big fan of nutrient dosing 😄. You can follow me on Instagram aqua__flora, where you can send pics and can chat.

Right now its too warmer and not helping with red plants, so will that led strip help?

[@AQUAFLORA]

Thanks! whatever I describe in my videos, I first test on my aquariums with different plants, To be honest answer could be Yes and No. All manufactures make planted led lights in a balanced full spectrum method, in my opinion if you increase certain color it might increase algae issues. That's why brands like Finnex/Fluval/Juwel etc. will make it relatively low emission(so even a beginner can use it and doesn't loose the balance). Also, growth of plants depends on their nature as well. In your case I would suggest slowly(4-5 hrs) introduce your new LEDs and monitor growth but don't be surprised if you start seeing some other issues I.e. Algae etc. Enjoy the Hobby!!

[@CoolRahulize]

Sir carpet plants only grow on the carpet, if you give very high light along with Co2 properly then it will grow tall. I feel that for carpet plants, the best way of propagation of the plants on the carpet should be done with the seeds of these carpet plants and then try to grow the plants without any water within the tank and try to cover the aquarium until you see the roots of the plants within the substarte, once you see that that has happened, then you can water the tank and then everything depends on how much fertilizers, Co2, and light is provided to the aquarium as such. Let me tell you I do not agree to your funda of high lighting for carpet plants. If you give very high light to carpet plants, it will grow tall, which is not what we require. If you try this then surely you can grow most of the carpet plants, however there are certain carpet plants, which are really tough to grow, the cuba variety is one such plant. For any plants within an aquarium the basic three parameters are fertilizer, CO2 and amount of lighting. Many people have alos found that it's not the kelvins of the lights that matter, it's the hours of the light that is provided to the plants as well that matters the most

[@AQUAFLORA]

Ok

[@tomshaji]

Seeds are fake carpet plants

[@CoolRahulize]

@@tomshaji anyways if a person is struggling with live plants, especially the carpeting plants, then the best option left are seeds or propagation with seeds. Yes it's true when you don't see anything growing from the seeds or when it's only seeds, you can't see the plants growing from it, then quite natural to say it's fake, but that's a thing that you can consider as a chance. Who knows what you end up to. It depends completely upon which stage a person is in propagation of the aquatic carpeting plants. But let me say this, I have seen people do it and getting success and myself did it and got a lot of success. All of this confidence is because bof that.
