Hi, i have a newly started 20gallon tank with some live rock and sand in it. I only have the pos fluorescent 15W bulb on it right now. I am very limited in finances at the moment and i am looking for a CHEAP way to solve my lighting problem. I want to have some anemones, mushrooms, and simple things like that for now. I want to find a cheap method to adequately light my tank until i can buy something better and more powerful. I saw these 34W~120W compact fluorescent bulbs at Home depot. I was thinking of using two of these. In this ok???
Thanks!

nope- not gonna hack it for anemones. It may work for shrooms and polyps but anemones- No...You really oughta hold back and save up some cash to get the right equipment before setting this kinda tank up...just my .02
