What can I grow with this lighting?

[harleychic]

Hi all. I have a 6 gallon Fluval Edge fully cycled, going to pick up my mated pair of harlequins in the next day or so from the LFS. Are there any red macros I can grow eith the stock LED light? Thanks!

I think that light should be fine for red grape or dragons breath.

Caution with the heat - will cause temps to get up there quickly dont know if you wanna do a light on / light off cycle throughout the day as to keep a stable temp - my room temp is higher than most upstairs but... if you keep a stable 65 room temp you may be ok - My stock lights got too hot and i replaced w/ LED on top of glass

You have stock LEDs right?

 

I dont believe that would get too hot

Gracilaria curtissae - to the best of my knowledge, there are no red Dictyota species as those are simply mis-identifications (likely Fauchea sp.).
