I have a bow-faced 40g tank that has a 40w light fixture on it. It would appear that it's a light strip (as opposed to a full enclosure). I would like to add some light to see if it will help the plants but don't know if I should go for another light strip the same as I have (it will fit) or to go for a smaller brighter fixture.
The existing one is 36" and so far would appear to be atypical and more hard to find replacement bulb. Whereas a smaller light might be easier to find bulbs.
Would it be better to cover the whole tank or would a bright light placed - say, in the center of the tank - be sufficient?
Thanks for any suggestions.
