I want to add live plants to my 29 gal aquarium. Each one requires at least 2watz full spectrum per gallon..... 29 x 2= 58 so i figuire a 65-75watz will be good. Where can i find that kind of power for such a bad canopy? If possible.

Look for the fitting size of your bulb, it should start with a T and have a number behind it (T8,T5 etc). Then go to the local pet store and buy a bulb that puts out at least 5500K. Over 10,000K is better. Please remember to replace your bulbs every six month, as they age they lose the ability to produce light in the blue spectrum and more in the red (only algae likes red).

the normal canopy is not capable of that kind of wattage the ballast will not carry that
go to any pet store that sells salt water fish and coral and puchase a compact floresant.
