Probably not, unless it's a really bright light over a shallow tank. "Also will they really take over the bottom of my tank?" They will need more light and fertilizer to do that, but in the right conditions, they tend to form a dense carpet over the substrate. I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

The incandescent bulbs simply don't have enough intensity. Swap it for a spiral compact flourescent and you'll see the difference. Some days you're the pigeon and some days you're the statue. Remember that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and ability.
