Need Advice: temp. lighting on a 120 predator tank

[44santababy]

Hello, my ACAN leds failed me last night on my predator tank. It will take a week to have it repaired and back on my tank. I have an adult skeletor eel that loves the darkness, golden puffer who does not mind swimming around in the dark but my male crosshatch trigger is hiding in his cave and wont venture out at all. im worried cause he is not eating and he eats like a pig. I need a temp. light for my 120 tall tank. Could i just go to petlandsdiscount and buy a 90$ light fixture and use that for the time being or is that just a waste of money? what can i do to light my tank until my leds are fixed? any ideas...i dont want my trigger not eating for a week....thanks

Since it's a fish only tank, and you don't have any corals, just get a regular cheap 4' florescent light fixture from HD or Lowes or maybe even a clip on light to just light the tank. I also wouldn't worry about a trigger not eat for a few days as if it's hungry it will start to eat.
