lighting on a 20g long
i'm upgrading my 10g to a 20g and i'm pretty sure my 70w viper won't be enough. i'm pretty sure i could use it and keep softies on the edges and lps in the center with it real low, but i think i'd rather just upgrade the lights too. any suggestions? and keep in mind that i'm not trying to spend $200+ thanks!

Is 10 gallon (12 inch) spread the limit of a 70 watt viper? I have a 15 gallon hex and was considering the 70w viper, tank is only 15 inches wide.

i'm sure a lot of people would recommend a 150w for the 15 gallon, my 70 does cover the whole tank though. i dunno the limit though
