Re: Reptile Combo Light

Personally if I had to buy a light strip just for plants, I'd probably go
down to Home Depot and buy a double strip T8<G>
Or if you're going to order one, go to www.bigalsonline.com and check out
their prices. I'd not use halide due to the heat, those really should be
suspended above the tank.
