nither of those links are working for me

I tried just http://www.jlaquatics.com and it was refused.
I think the site is down right now.

Links working now.
First light - inexpensive and not to bad
Second - Big bucks but you could keep anything with that light.

the first one seems like it would be lacking for wattage for a ten gallon wouldnt it?

what about something like this for soft corals

That is basicly what is in the retrofit that I did.
You say your tank is 13 " and this is 20 (bulb is really only about 17")
Throw a set of the legs on and you would be good to go.

I had one of these on my 44 gallon seahorse tank
would be great for a 10 gallon - lots of light to grow things
IMO this is a good bang for your buck
Hope this helps
(btw, if you order one, make sure that you order a bulb as well)

howdy that does seem like an interesting idea, super powerful.

Midknight, yeah i will have a bit of overhang with a 20" but no biggy
but that 96 watt light will grow soft corals well?

the bulb is 6500 K as well
good for growth
If you want to go to a higher K, you can get some overhead projector plastic sheets that are clear light blue..simple but would work
the bulbs last like 7 hours of normal use

i think you should use one of these.
