The ready wired ceramic ES fitting and cord is suitable for all you screw in globes including ceramics. It now comes with an on/off switch so making it easier to control your light source. The ceramic fitting is two piece so is handy for fitting to glass frog lids or other suitable set-ups.

I take it you are wanting to grow plants?
How big is the tank 60x20x24 what? cm,inches,feet.
I don't believe that the light will do the job,Just what i have read about other peoples experience's with them.

Once you let us know if the size of your tank is in cm or inches,Then we can take it from there.

On a tank that size, I'd be looking at getting two x 250 watt heaters, one at each end of the tank.

Your ten gallon tank and 50 watt heater will be useful as a hospital tank, if you ever need to use one, and can also double as a quarantine tank.

As far as filters go, I really like the eheim filters. I know there are other really good filters out there, but as far as performance and reliability go, for me it's eheim every time.
