g'day all - some advice please. I'm setting up a 6x2x2 planted tank, mainly anubias, crypts and swords. have the chance to pick up a 5 foot aqualina compact flouro light at a good price. It gives out approx. 300w, which together with an existing 6 ft single will give a total of around 360 w.Would the 5 footer work ok on the 6 foot tank as far as light distribution goes?

will be fine, might even be a bonus as you'll get some dark shadow spots in the tank that help calm fish down and make them feel more secure.
