Maybe start off with one bulb on, and when things get established, turn them both on. If it's a new setup its going to take a month for the substrate to mature and for the plants to get established. More light will just cause more algae and make it harder for the plants to start off.

:shock:

I have 220 watts of pc lighting for my 75 gallon-to-be. Obviously this will be a brand new setup, should I turn on only half of of my lights?
While I'm asking dumb questions, should I turn on the Co2 and use the fertilizer (Yamato Green) right away at start up?

What does the manufacturer of Yamato Green recommend?

For regular use, 1 tsp per 10-20 gallons per week. It doesn't mention new tanks.

I hope to get the plants from AZ Gardens, so I hope they'll be fairly decent.
