At the moment I have a 24” 20 watt fluorescent bulb in my 29 gal aquarium lamp, which only gives me a WPG of .69. I cannot afford to upgrade this lamp since I just went back to school so I was thinking of taking 2 clip on desk lamps (http

This will give me a total of 80 watts, which will bump my WPG up to 2.79. Do you think this will be OK until I can afford a light upgrade?
