    Say Something Bad

    Could you put a canopy over this design? I ask because im stuck without a tank for a period and need these lights for my transistion tank as well.... I like this setup and thanks for the positive words, glad it is nice. Do you use the bulbs it came with or did you upgrade

    Buying a New Tank

    Now is there an "all in one" Metal Halide setup I could put in my canopy instead of doing reflectors. I ask because I could like to order the lights now to keep my corals happy in the transition tank under my new one gets build. Would something like this work under a wood canopy...

My buddy got a necklace from here and it was appraised for $2700 back home. Sounds to good to be true. My question is...
