Im getting closer to having nearly everything i need for my saltwater reef and i have a few question that id like answered.
I purchased the "Sunlight Supply Lumen Max Elite" along with a radium bulb 250W, 20K, and a M80 ballast, and I also bought the glass shield for the reflector....my question is can I use the glass to help keep the light bulb safe from any splashing? or does this effect the light output in any way?

Im also in the process of getting a stand built for my tank, The room its going in is 7' 3" in height , My tank is 2' 6" in height and the stand Id like to have 3' in height, the light fixture is 6" so total space used so far is 6 feet.....just want to make sure is 1' 3" good enough of a space to have when playing around with height of my fixture? (which will be suspended from the ceiling)
Thanks for the help in advance! :hmm5:
