Hello,
I'm seriously considering the JBJ 180 for use as a heavily planted freshwater tank. However, the 11W light that comes with it seems inadequate to me and my local dealer thinks so too.
Is this correct and is the solution to simply replace the bulb with something stronger? If so, what do you recommend? Will I have to replace the ballast too?
Thanks!

it is a little more than 1 watt per gallon which is low on the spectrum
Pleasnts that could grow in the jbj 180 nano cube are
anubius , Many mosses live erect moss or java moss and low light plants.
