At the moment I have a 29-gallon fish tank and I am very interested in getting live plants. My problem is that I do not have enough lighting to keep any live plants living. On top of that my fish tank is a 29 tall not long, so light does not reach the bottom as much as if it were a long fish tank. At the moment 1 have a Aqueon 24" full spectrum daylight fluorescent lamp t8 with 17 watts. I have done much research online to figure out how much lighting I would need a minimum which is 29 (1 watt per gallon. I have have gone online and the max they offer for a 24" fluorescent light is 24 watts. Now my question is am I out of hope or do I have any other options beside spending around 150 for a whole new lighting system?
