Fluorescent hood or strip light for 10 gallon tank.

So I got a free 10 gallon tank, but the hood it came with is a piece of junk with incandescent lighting. While I'd love to get fancy with medium to high lighting in the tank, all I can afford to maintain is a common fluorescent hood or a strip light/hinged glass combo.
 
Actually you might want to look at using that incadescent fixture. You can replace the incadescent bulbs with Screw In Compact Fluorescents and get better lighting than you would with the standard Fluorescent fixture.
 
Yes indeed, those hoods are the best bang for the buck as you can switch wattages easily for more light.
