    Well Ive always preached and said NEVER under estimate the need for proper lighting, you'd be supprised at how much light is needed , and how well most "softies" can take in.

    Now you'll have to watch your tank temp. and probly put a fan on top to move air across the tank top to help disapate heat. lol
