I just purchased a 5g AGA and am going to start the set up this evening when i get home from work...(I cant wait!) :)

I wanted to see how everyone else has there's set up so I can maybe get a few idea's.

So If you have pics of your 5g's..send them please!!

PS..I was thinking about going with this lighting set up.

What does everyone think about this lighting for a 5g.

Thank you all!
 
Have you considered the 12" Dual Satellite 2x18W SunPaq w/Light (Current). It would double you total watts and give you about 6 watts per gallon. They run about $80. Also has 2 light switches to have seperate controls over daylights and actinic.
 
heres my little setup im waiting on live rock coming in the mail.

Uhuru (or someone who knows), what is the brand of light you're using?

It's a 70w astralux bulb and aromat e-ballast, using an $8 Brinks floodlight fixture. A common DIY over on the nr forum.
