Lighting

Question
I currently have a planted freshwater 16 gallon tank. I have low light plants like Java Ferns and Anubis. I want to upgrade to a 25-30 gallon tank and start to expand the plants to moderate light requirements. My question is, for a 25-30 gallon freshwater tank to be able to contain all kinds of different plants (light requirements) what type of bulb/watt/fixture should I look for? Thanks

Answer
Hi Rachel,
  Unfortunately I am not a good person to ask for that.  Because I keep mostly cichlids, and they eat pretty much any plant I put in the tank, the plants I keep are almost exclusively plastic plants -- and they still eat those!   Sorry.
