| Small Light? | |
smapty![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hobbyist Posts: 99 Kudos: 64 Votes: 7 Registered: 07-Jul-2005 ![]() | Anyone know of a good source of light for a two gal marineland tank? All I have is a betta and a growing plant. Is there a small light 5-7W that would work for this or maybe a type of "other" light that would give enough light to the tank? |

What type of fixture does it have screw in or pins? ^_^ [font color="#999999] Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words[br" ] Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words We live on front porches and swing life away We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand" ![]() |

I'd suggest wandering thru the lighting section of your local home improvements store and see what might work for you. Be sure that you can easily find both the bulbs and the fixture you'll need. I've had problems getting both together :%). Also look in office supply stores (desklamps are desklamps after all) and just about anywhere else you can think of finding lights. I used to have a nice 13 watt lamp that fit over the 10 gallon. I've since upgraded.
