small tank!

[luvluv]

i bought my husband a small 5 gallon tank. he wants to set it up as salt water, as we already have a 55 gal in living room . he wants it forf his office desk. the problem is it comes with a commercial light screw in type . if he goes salt water for just a couple of percula clowns thats all, then he will need a diffrent light maybe a make shift hood even . the tank itself is a triangler shape . any suggestions would be greatly welcomed .

if he wants to increase the lighting without buying a new light, try one of the ge 15 watt energy saving bulbs. they have the output of a 60 watt while only using 15. they are the funny looking bulbs with 3 flourescent tubes. they work well.
