Has anyone had any success using an Eclipse 5 gallon aquarium to create a planted aquarium? I am using the light which came with the set up. I have chosen low level light plants like Java fern and other which I forget the name. I brought the plants from back east. I now live on the west coast in an insolated town where I know there is not alot at the local hardware store. It would seem that this self containted unit would be difficult to alter in terms of lighting without tearing the whole thing down and getting rid of the filter. It has about an hour of sun light a day.

Let me be the first to welcome you, you came to the right place. What type of bulb came with the Eclipse, a Compact Flourescent or a screw in incadescent?
