Thanks!
When I wrote the MCI I suggested to use the method with no les than 1 watt per litre, this is about 4 watts/gallon. The feedback showed me that the MCI works with less light only if you have a lot of plants. The only difference is that it will take more time because your tank is slower. It has been succesfully used with 2 watts/gallon.
