I'm going to be purchasing a 20 gallon long tank tomorrow to handle all the new CPs I'll be getting this year (curse this addiction) and I'm wondering what I should use to light the thing.
I use mostly compact flourescents for all my other tanks and they work really well, but I'm thinking that compacts aren't the way to go for the 20 gallon long. Should I go with some tubes? I was looking at the tube fixtures at Home Depot today and I couldn't really make out which one would fit nicely on top of a 20 gallon long. Anyone have any advice?
Also, the price of the 20 gallon long was about 38 dollars at Petco. Is this a good price?
