One side is sheeted for side movemnt and I will install another sheet for side movement once I get my sump and decide how the plumbing is going to go.
I got it used from a LFS, very special price

Can't wait to see more.
I picked the sump up today from So Cal Tropical, needed something custom to fit the BK 400 in
Dimensions: 48 L X 22W X 17H, only had 23 inches to work with under the stand
will take pics

well i got the tank plumbed and started working on the light holder
tell me what you guys think, I made just one prototype
I like it so far
what I reall like is I can move the lights from side to side for maintenance, they swivel from the back

Hey Paul,
The LumenBrights may be to close to your water surface to get a decent spread from them, I have the same reflectors over my 120, they are 16" off the waters surface, and that tank is only 24" wide, I also have a 300 and when i merge the two together im going to have to rebuild my canopy to allow for the extra heighth

please don't tell me that, they are 8 from the water, I am limited on the height to where I have the tank, if these don't work and I get the shadowing, I will be switching to the lrg lumenarc old school reflectors.
thanks

well I dont want to say for sure, but the standard for the lumen brights is in the 14-16" range from the water surface, my 300 is the same dimensions as yours, I dont have them mounted on it yet but they are on my 120, these reflectors are great but kind of give you the spotlight effect, and that close to the water I think it will be more noticable, since you have the galaxy ballasts, you might could try the lumen max elite reflectors, I like both styles personally.
