Hello everyone,
I have been roaming this site for a little while now but have not yet posted, so now I would like to ask my first question. You all are a wealth of information, thanks!
I am a college student setting up my first planted aquarium so I am on a budget.
Here is the question:
Can I use two of these lights (even though they are not made for aquariums) over my 55 gallon aquarium?

I got the idea from reading this AGA article:
http://www.aquatic-gardeners.org/budget.html (under lighting section)
If these would work are there any modifications that I would need to make (e.g. waterproofing)?
If I could get by using these for 4 or 5 months I would be able to save enough money to upgrade.
Thanks!
