If I remember right, Tulock's "Natural Reef Aquariums" has a very good picture of 4 differently light tanks.

Maybe Mojo could give us all a class on how to make 500+ gal tanks look even bigger. I just wish there was a way to stretch a 90 into a 250.

Thanx FISH,
I was thinking that if I got them they would be too "Blue" for my taste
but.... those look really nice!
O well to late to change my mind I already got them ordered
they are 400's also
I was thinking about adding a couple of 10k or 67k Power Compact 96w to even em out a bit, or maybe even VHO
MY GOD there are sooooo many choices

thats an great tank Douglas
I've got a center brace, how would I go about putting a center MH in there with out weakening it. I could do a lower wattage bulb?

Is that the plastic center brace, Ross? I have seen problems with them under 400w halides. Mine has two braces, but glass. Also my tops open, as its behind the wall and my lights are fairly high.
Actually the bubble pic, is with a bulb lower down, where one would normally run them under a hood.
