Can a houseplant grow off only incadescent light?

Question

I really like a few different varieties of houseplants but they are poisonous to my cats. Can something like nephthytis or croton grow in a fishtank with only incandescent light, soil, and fertilizer? I don't want to risk having them anywhere near windows even inside an aquarium. It's a 2.5 gal tank with a 10w(?) light bulb. I can get a more powerful one if needed. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Possibly. It depends on how much light the plant gets and how much you water it.

Answer 2

No you cant it is the wrong type of light not enough of the blue spectrum. there are special bulbs out there or the best thing to get is a tube that they use for fish tanks ..Metal Halide bulbs

and the tubes do not get as hot and will not burn the plants,

hope this is a help.
