I want to grow whatever I want I have a co2 diffuser and I am wondering what t5 lights I should get what size t5 will fit a standard 10 gallon and do you know where I can order a reasonably priced fixture?

MARINELAND® Single Bright LED Lighting System - Lighting & Hoods - Fish - PetSmart
Both of these are led and super bright. A nice thing about them is that they have a blue led night light...
