Using a Kessill A160 on my Eshopp Deskmate and not to sure what’s the best lighting for this aquarium. It came with a stock led light as well I can throw back on the tank but was wondering if you guys think I should continue to use the A160? Also should I run the light with a mix of blue and white light? Thanks in advance for the info!

My opinion would be to stick with the Kessil, that's an amazing light and will out perform the stock light, 50% Blue and 50% White is what I run on my systems.

Okay, thanks for the help! What intensity do you think I should run the light at? I don’t have the adapter part that allows me to see the percentage but I basically have it as low as it can go at the moment since it’s running on such a small tank.

Intensity I would stick with where you have it at, no more than 25% would be adequate for that size system.
