    Vivarium Lighting
    Hi all-

    I posted this on a different forum, but they're small and answer don't come as quickly. I know a few members have planted viviariums and I have a few questions on lighting.

    I want to build a viv with plant and maybe a small water feature. *Maybe* a firebelly toad or two, not sure, right now just planted.

    What type of lighting do I need to keep the plants healthy? Is it a regular reptile UV light or a plant Grow light or an aquarium fish light? I am not sure.

    Oh, I know it may depend on what type of plants are used, as well, I am thinking something hardy and beginnerish. Since I have a not so green thumb.

    Thanks much.
