The most awesome bulb for small tanks lives at walmart..

5 bucks too!
Finally, a light that isnt yellow tinted! I was being so anal about that
I hate the word anal, just best adjective in use at that point, sorry just had to clarify.

Btw, the light bulb was 5 bucks, and fit my Aqueon 5 gallon, and is awesome! the bulb is in a plastic package, titled "mini aquarium florescent light bulb"

I'm confused - it is a submergable (sp?) light?

it's just a replacement cfl bulb, lol
I use them in my tanks too, I got one in petco that the base was so huge it wouldn't fit in the hood, the wal mart ones are nice and slim

also, I have a quick question, I have some type of opaque film on the sureface of my tank. I think its because the tops of these plants stop the filter's ripples from reaching them. Should I move them or is it okay? my fish is fine as always. How long do you keep catptpaapaata leaves in ??

Nice setup and pretty betta, too!!!

Yeah, looks really good! I hate the yellow tinge too, it really kills the colour! but your betta is looking great, and I really like the setup too.

Does it look a bit like a thin oil slick? It's probably just the natural bacteria coating on the surface. It bothers me, too, but without a surface skimmer it will pretty much always be there.
