Hey all,

I recently set up a 10 gallon planted tank(about 2 or 3 months ago)..
Anyways, all of the plants I put in there would shrivel up and die over the
course of about two weeks. Lurking on a lot of posts on this newsgroup, I
decided to buy a new bulb for my tank. This new bulb(the cheapest I could
buy) seems about twice as bright as my old bulb(significantly more
expensive, but really really old). Now my plants seem to be thriving. All
I gotta say is that there's a lot of truth in replacing your tank bulbs
often. Just thought I'd share my success story with the group.
