I picked up a used TruVu and am thinking of a planted Discus setup. It'll be med to low tech tank with common easy and fast to grow plants. What are your recommendations for lighting options? Tank is 60"Lx18Dx20"H

Plants that i have now: Taiwan/Christmas Moss
Amazon sword
Java ferns ( narrow, lace, and broad leafs)
Tiger lotus lily
green rotala
Wisteria
Common Crypts
Petite Anubias

thanks in advance for your ideas!
