yea figured might as well. people just dont seem to understand as to why i want to make this tank as close to perfect as possible. i keep getting the same responses " go bigger" or "just get a bigger tank". although i really do desire a much larger tank, i also want this one to look as beautiful as i can possibly make it. within my budget of course lol. anyways, im still looking... i have also decided that a fixture is an option i saw someone a few months back had a like 18 inch fixture with like a 70w dual end mh and two 13 watt actinics. something like that would work. because i really dont want to give up my day night light cycles.
