Will mangroves grow under the red/blue leds? I stuck the light off an old refugium on my mangroves. Will it work or do I need to get white lights for them?

They will do better with more PAR. Mangroves grow in tropical areas that get lots of full sunlight year-round. I bought a 36w full spectrum LED grow light bulb on Amazon for $40 that I'm hoping will work well for mine. The brand is Sansi if you want to look it up.
