How much light do guppies need or prefer?
Gumdrop Girl asked:
I keep my guppies in the kitchen, but it’s dark in there. They don’t show any problems from being kept in the dark all day, but they really perk up when I come home and turn the lights on. A lot of fish don’t do well with direct light, but should I leave the lights on while I’m at work? I’d prefer not to waste electricity, but if it keeps my guppies happy… Your thoughts, please.

What is the best lighting for a 20 gallon high w/ fish and plants?
Stacy asked:
Please be specific, suggesting brands would be really helpful, links also! I don’t really know much about lighting except it should be 5000-6700 or something like that. Also would coralife compact fluorescent bulbs work good for a planted 10 gallon?
