[Ford]

i was thinking about getting a bigger tank and putting it in the basement do the fish need sunlight.

I could be wrong, but I think the light on the hood/cover would be enough.

No. They don't need sunlight allthough sunlight can make breeding some species easier. It as actually an advantage to don't have sunlight as it makes it easier to control algea.
