Awesome plant light deal!

I posted how I am putting off my NPT for a little bit, however I wanted to share this light I got at Walmart. It costs about the same as a replacement grow bulb. I thought from the package that it was only 4200k, but when I got it out last night, and took the cover off of it, it turned out to be a T8, 7800k bulb in it..very cool! Not bad at all for around $10!

Right? I seriously thought it was not going to be a strong enough light to add plants to my tank...so happy when I took that cover off and saw the numbers on the bulb! I'm buying another for my 5.5g also...I'll be ready when I can afford to set up my NPT!

Yes, This is such a nice information about light purchase, I also want to purchase this type of lights so its very useful information for me. I want to buy grow light for my plants so its best for me, Thanks.

Bummer! I am going to buy one for my 5.5g too...it's not planted yet, but it doesn't have a conventional hood/light. I like that this light can be hung on the wall behind the tank too.
