Was wondering what u guys use for lighting ur fuge. I have cheato and macro growing inside.  the light im using is just 2 18" t8's one 10k and one 50/50 is this suffeciant enough. i do have a spotlight fixture i could use would that be better if so what type of bulb should i use or is the t8's ok whats everyine using?

Just use a CF that you would in your house buddy attached with a clamp socket No fancy lighting needed if you dont have fish or coral frags in there.
