So, now that I have built a lid (super HEAVY duty, hemlock trim) for our baby dragon tank, a 50 gallon one, we have an empty tank. So there I am looking at it...thinking....now it can't be used for fish. I got a pic but didn't bring it with me. I decided it needed to be for my trees, my baby trees. My orange, lemon, key lime, nigerian coffee...tangerine. I was able to get them all in it, with the banana and a mini rose sitting just outside of it. There is a full spectrum bulb in it as the person who gave it to me was growing a wide variety of water plants in it so this is good. Very good. They have light, heat, they should all do SO well this winter. I used to take a drop down shop light and put full spectrum bulbs in it on a basic frame for winter time and my tropicals but this is way better. Don't know why I never thought of it before, maybe it is because I never had large, empty tanks laying around that couldn't be used as a fish tank anymore?
