If my memory is correct I believe you want around 6500k to get the most out of your fuge light. Basically a plant light as that offers the best spectrum for plant growth. I used a 6500 or 6700k spiral cfl bulb from Lowe's in my last tank and grew chaeto very well. Currently don't have any as po4 is only .03 and no3 is only .2 with no visible algae growth and light film on glass I clean once a week so don't see a need for it yet.
