Lunch, my lighting....

[RudeBoy]

Hey Lunch,
My tank finally cleared up a bit and I'm gonna put a few shots in this post. Quick question for you... I haven't moved my new frags into it yet, only some green shrooms and a piece of Montipora Digitata. The Digitata is blossoming well, polyps are out on it. I just want to know if the 36w are gonna be okay because this tank is definitely tall. My first tall in fact. The light has a greater distance to travel down to the bottom and I just wanna be sure it's gonna be sufficient for now. What do you think about this?

36'ers are too long for that tank aren't they??

i would do at least 3x36 maybe 4x36. i am a light freak though. :D

36's will be too much, the length of the tank is only 15".

I found a link to the replacement bulbs for my lighting setup. They're Helios bulbs and they were at the same site that you sent me a link to for the tank. (http://www.commodityaxis.com/index2.htm) I guess you have to call them for pricing. I'm gonna order a new set of bulbs and let you know what they cost me. I'd sure love to get my hands on the bigger ballast that they sell for the 18g tank. I wouldn't mind having the 2x36w bulbs on this baby.
