I have a bearded dragon and a red-eared slider turtle whom both eat mostly lettuce. I'm tired of paying for store bought lettuce, and since I live in zone 4b/5a, it's a little too cold to be growing lettuce outdoors! I was cleaning out some pet supplies when it dawned on me that I may be able to use my old plant light on an empty 10 gallon tank and turn it into an indoor lettuce garden. Warm, no pests, good drainage, and I'd be able to keep an eye on it since I put it in my kitchen.

Here's the beginning picture of "The Lettuce Project". I really have no idea what I'm doing, so any suggestions/comments are completely welcome!
