SE halide bulb reflectors

[Arthur1]

Looking for opinions on which reflectors would be good for a 12'' wide aquarium. I don't recall seeing much on the spectral light spread on a lot of reflectors. Any opinions would be appreciated.

anyone?

Lumenarc mini's are 14" i think the smallest you are going to get.

Thanks uranium I'll keep looking

Cheap batwings might do the trick. In my opinion, I would look at T5's instead. No matter what you do, you'll have some major waste of light on a 12" wide.

How deep will the tank be? My guess is that it won't be significantly deeper than the 12" width so I agree with RokleM. Get some T5 s and save yourself the heat and electricity.
