Hey, I can answer this one! I recently bought some lighting for a 29 gallon myself... I currently have a 10 gallon, my 29 gallon is empty right now until I can afford to buy a LOT of plants at once.

I got this: http://www.bigalsonline.com/catalog/...d1=1843;pcid2=
which is perfect for the low-light, low-tech system I want to put together. I recommend you read this: http://www.plantgeek.net/article_viewer.php?id=17, an article Simpte posted on a sticky, I believe, for the low down on setting up a tank like this.

I am planning on using garden soil under gravel for substrate in case you were wondering, although I'm hoping to find something smaller than the gravel you buy at fish stores. Hope that helps.
