I got a 10 gallon tank that came with a fish light. Will that work?

Are you asking if the light will be fine? The answer is no. The heat will only be in day time because you can't put it on while they are awake because it will obviously be light out and they will get all messed up. An UTH w/ a thermostat is the best thing to get. Either that or heat tape with a thermostat.

Thank you for the advise. Could you explain what type of heat tape to use.
