I think I will just stick with the shop lights. So, here is my understanding.. I will get a glass canopy like you said. Then 2 shop lights, one with the 32 watt bulbs and the other set with plant growth bulbs? Or mix them up- one 32 watt and one plant light in each set? Do the glass covers work...

Well, I didn't see any baby fish in the tank, but the platy is back to skinny.

Thanks. So for shop lights do they hang from the ceiling over the tank or how does that work? I was looking on ebay and found this .. T5 Dual 48" HO Aquarium Light Strip Cichlid Marine Tropical Fish 108W 55g 2 Bulb | eBay which doesn't seem to be a bad deal- What do you think?

I guess I did figure out how to add the picture as an attatchment, lol

We have a 55 gallon tank now but will be getting a bigger tank (125 gal) sometime within the next...

Hello! I have no idea how to decide what lights to buy for my 55 gallon tank. Right now it just has the original lights that came with the tank, and they are not working at all for my plants. So I am looking to buy new lights, but I have no idea where to look or what to look for. What do you use...

Right now we have 2 dwarf gouramis in our 55 gallon tank. We are going to keep it as just the 2 for now till I know the tank is stable. But here is our "wish list" so far, please let me know what you think. I have been looking at different compatibility charts and I believe all these types are...

FishTank.jpg picture by samantha72727272 - Photobucket The shells are from my parents tank and some of the rocks are from the previous owner. Sorry, I tried adding the picture but it doesn't look like it worked.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by media.. is that the filter part or just decorations? I got a few shells from them for my tank. I can get some of their gravel or something too if that would help the 2 gouramis if my tank is not completely cycled. They seem to be doing fine so far but I...
