Monti question

Hey, I was wondering if 3 watts per gallon of pc lighting is enough in a 14" deep aquarium, for a monti cap. If I place it up high will it work? Thanks

Lighting is just one factor to take into consideration with the monti cap. If all other factors are spot on you might manage to keep it alive but it will brown out over time.

It's 72 watts in a 24g. I think I will try one and place it up high. My levels are spot on so that isn't an issue.
