Lighting On my 25 gallon

[psychoskater]

I am making a 25 gallon FOWLR tank. I made a fluorecent light hood. Im not sure what kind of bulbs to put on it. Should they be like a 50/50, actinic or like ust plain lights. Im not planning on having any corals. What kind of lights should I have on it?

For the regular flos I like the 10,000k and 20,000k spectrums, the 50/50 would work too, don`t use the non-tank(lowes home depot bought) flos they can cause algae probs.

you do not need special lighting for fowlr, so you can use no flourescent. 50/50 will give you that all around color you want

Its mostly up to personal preference. I have a NO 10000K bulb on my FO and like the look. The 6500k's are too yellow for my taste.
