Coralife has a 20" 1x28w Aqualight and Current has a 20" 1x40w Satellite fixture.

But, both of them come with saltwater bulbs. You can swap them out for 6700K, 8000K, 10,000K and a dual daylight 6700K/10,000K bulb.

Current also has a 2x40w Satellite and a 2x40w Orbit fixture. You'll need good CO2 for these fixtures.

All of these bulbs have square pin connections and they will fit in the fixtures mentioned above.

Hum ... You didn't mention a price ceiling. I wasn't price shopping for you.

You said, "so any suggestions what do all yall use on the ten gallons and what not. ty."

I was showing you what is available in 20" fixtures for 10g that I know about. Those fixtures are usually on sale at many of the online vendors from time to time.

Your link shows T5NO fixtures. You didn't mention that you were looking for them in your original post.

There are a few 20" T5 fixtures around, but I'm not familiar with them.

Anyway, good luck.

I use an AH Supply 36 watt light kit in a DIY enclosure over my 15H tank, which is the same size as a 10 gallon, only 50% taller. It seems to be working very well.

Off topic, but I see you're from Lake Charles. Is that little Bessie girl I once knew still around?
