  • Lights on Large Tanks

    What type of lights are you using on your larger tanks?

    My mind is still in the Saltwater lane.......Since my tank depth is 30 inches I was thinking of using Metal Halides.


    What are you using?

    The last canopy I built included dual 300w halogen bulbs. in a comercial shop light fixture.   I gave me plenty of light and enough heat to raise the tank tempature 10 degrees......  so don't forget to add a fan or two.

    If I do it again I will use 12v halogen driving lights (sealed beam) with a 12v yard lighting controler (12v transformer and timer)
    'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
    He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'
