Problem: 47g tank is the width of a 10g, so no commercial light fixtures provide more than 1/3 wpg

Solution: build a lighting fixture featuring at least two spotlights (23w each for about 1 wpg or more if I find better spotlights)

My dad is an electrical engineer and will be helping me with the project.

All comments and criticisms are welome, especially if they save me from burning down the house!

Off to Lowes for parts...
