Thanks Dave,

I will stick to low light plants then, as I only really want around 3 plant varieties. I have been looking around and haven't found much that looks similar to HC that I can use as a carpet under low light.. maybe just tie down some moss ? I will try HC out of curiosity, and buy a few root tabs once cycling is over. I've wanted to buy a better lighting system but being in France, I don't want to have to pay too much for shipping. Also i've spent an embarassing sum of money already thanks to my lfs who'm i'll never go back to.
What do you think of this ?

36 watts, 10 000 k, the stand won't fit since its 67 cm, but the ramp is 60 cm, I could building something.

Or I found this less expensive for 36 or 40w tube
