Ok, went to a light store today and they only had 18watt, 6500K lights...

The laady said I couldn't get a 2ft light more then 18watt..

What the..? How can I get 2w/p/g for my 22g if all I can find is these dumb 'extra white, 18watt, 6500k lights'

Where can I get a higher light with higehr wattage..???

By reflector, you mean the thing that holds it over the aquarium? If so, I already have that with my fluro bulb...

I really want atleast 2w/p/gn - So definately an over 44watt light.. Where should I go to get these things????

I went to 2 lighting stores and both said they only had 18watt fluros...

Hey, would this work!!!!!????

Could I have my 18watt light (6500k) on the 22g, aswel as 2 of these things?

That would give me a much mroe desirable wattage, wouldn't it?

Ok, well I am gonna try and make the DIY light/s then..

My 18watt light on my 22g, has 6500k and a daylight rating... Does that mean its a pretty good bulb?

I am hoping to get 2 of those CF lights for the DIY to have a very high wattage...

Do you think with a DIY light and my 18watt light, I'll be able to grow Amazon, Melon Swords and Dwarf Hairgrass?

EDIT: I'll ahve a look out for linear tube then..
