what good is 2 plain-old 8 watt fluro lights in a tank that is 16 inches
high? This is an unused tank and I want to keep a few spare plants in,
will these lights do any good?



Likely, not much good at all. If it's 16 inches high, it's what, 45-55
gallons? You may be able to keep some Java Moss in there.g
