    Just get a 2ft light set will do cheaper then getting 2 x 1ft light set.

    Evo,

    remember you said once, 1x PL 18w light brighter than 2x PL 9w.

    Oic.. for my apisto rack i'm using a 55W PL 2ft light set for 2 x 1ft cube tank. I did not put the light resting on the tank but tie the light on the tier.
