Dual Satellite Light Fixture with 2 x 40W SunPaq lamps, 1 Lunar Light - 20 in. | Compact Fluorescent | Lighting Systems | Aquarium - ThatPetPlace.com

I have this fixture on my 14g planted. You will need to replace the actinic bulb with one for freshwater, so if you plan on using all 80w plan on spending another $20 for that replacement bulb you'll need.

I normally run both lamps for about 2 hours, then switch one off and just use 40w for the remainder of the time.

The cool thing about this fixture is the lunar light, which was a prime selling point for me. I could have just gone with the regular 20" Satellite for half the price (would still need to replace the bulb, though), but I wanted more than 2.5 wpg. Trust me, this fixture on your tank will be bright when both lamps are on.
