So today I setup a 40 G Long tank (48") that has been sitting in my garage for months.
I decided to set it up as a new home for my Angelfish and need to buy myself some new 65 watt compact flouresent bulbs for my Coralife fixture.
I have no idea about freshwater plants but intend to learn and would like to know what bulbs would best suit this tank.
I have found some CFs on eBay that are really cheap, and thats great for me on my college student budget!
Here is the link to the bulbs I have found...
65 Watt Power Compact Straight Pin SPECIALTY BULBS | eBay
They offer a selection of combinations, I am leaning towards the "Plant Grow" and 10,000k combo.
Is this the best choice from what they offer? My tank is very shallow (16" guessing) and I intend to get some low-medium light plants within a few months once it has cycled and my wallet has recovered!
Any help would be great!
