You can get LED arrays that are bright enough for a small tank, but they are expensive. For a fish only tank the lights are not as important, you only need them to see the fish better.

You can get this at an aqiarum or u can use a Regular Plant Bulb at homedepot. But if ur trying to do live plants you Must have a bulb specified for growing plants any light will do for a aquarium but if u want live plants u have to get a special plant bulb.
