I'm planning on turning one of my boring 10 gal tanks into a beautiful planted tank. after reading many of the stickies and looking into options, it seems that it's hard to find suitable lighting in the standard 20" size.
I was thinking of getting an incandescent and screwing in 2 10 watt Compact fluorescent. that would give me 2 wpg of compact fluorescent lighting, right?
i would like at least 2 wpg because, while i'll start slow with low light plants, i would like some room to grow (pardon the pun).
anyone have a recommendations for lighting on a 10 gal?
(of course, i plan on CO2, probably d.i.y., and some ferts, but i haven't gotten that far yet. one step at a time. and this is all just planning, i'm not actually setting it up yet)
Thanks!
