    Default Lighting for 60cm height of Dutch planted aquarium

    The aquarium is 130x50x60cm (length x width x depth) and totally closed, the upper part has a space of 50cm with fans.

    I do not finish seeing if with the LightBar 2 it will be enough light, in this case how many do I need? and how many PSU?

    Thank you

    Hi there,

    For your tank dimensions, we recommend the Lightbar2 130 Daylight.

    Depending on how many plants you will have, 1 lightbar may be enough. If you plan to heavily stock the tank, 2 Lightbars would be a much better option.

    For the power supply, each LB2 in the 130cm size uses 84W max. If you're planning to do 1x LB2, 1x 100w PSU is enough. If you plan to do 2x LB2, a single 200w PSU will run both Lightbars.


    As for control, if you wish to have full control over these lights, we recommend purchasing these additional items:
    • ProfiLux Mini, Light, or ProfiLux 4 controller
    • Mitras Lightbar Splitter
    • Mitras Lightbar RJ45 communication cable
