    well i mean i could tell you for sure what i got but then you wouldnt stay to see it in my tank. jk i got ten mangroves, red gracilaria, penny macro algae, and 5 lbs of rock. all of this for the ten gallon. i want it to be like a swamp type deal for the leaf fish.

    here are my lighting options.
    1.) Just actinic + grow light
    2.) Just grow light
    3.) Blue + White + grow light
    4.) Just White + grow light

    which do you like best, and do you think would grow gracilaria best? i like the blue the best.

    i know!! when the mangroves sprout it will look the best i think. also 95% of the stuff was bought from reef cleaners!!! thanks John!! (sand, 2 mangroves and equipment was the only thing not bought from them)
