    Hey guys, I have an evolve 8 fish tank with the stock lights. They are pretty good, but I am craving some more colorful plants that require higher intensity light.

    I was wondering if you guys know of any good lights to maintain any type of freshwater plants? ( I'd be great if I could find something that has Blue and white.. maybe red as well for those red colored plants?)

    Thanks!!
