    Those are the ones that will do the most for you! the more leaves the more roots the more they remove!

    I got mine sprouted with a hd clamp light and a cfl bulb. spent about 15 bucks and made it happen. I now have a full blown refugium with a light for it but that is how I started mine out. I have about 100 mangroves that all greaw under that light before upgrade.
