I haven't bought a bulb for a tank in a looooong time but I'm fairly certain they don't come that low (except for compact fluorescents). I would go with a 60-100w and then you can dim it down if needed.

You can get something called a piggy back dimmer. You plug the lamp directly into the dimmer, and plug the dimmer into the wall. There is a little slider where you can adjust the temp.
