I was wondering if anyone has any corner tanks or pentagon shaped tanks that are 30 inch deep.
Looking for pictures ...and lighting specs.
Thanks,
Angie

My 54 corner has 30" sides. Altho I love this hobby it is a pain to get light fixtures to fit and if I could do it all again I would do pendant lighting. Cleaning the back corner sucks also. I put extra holes for air flow. I circled that.

I have one that is 24" deep, so it probably won't help you much, but I have had a single 250 or a 400 watt MH over it at various times and both have produced great results keeping almost anything. I am guessing a 30" deep 120 would require at least one 400 watt halide if you want to keep light-demanding critters. Are you looking for a tank or already have one? If the former, there is a guy on here who's selling a 150 corner tank with lights and all...

Wait, yours has 30" sides? I guess I will go remeasure mine. It is same tank as yours. I thought it was 24". I made a custom frame for holding the MH light and I think it looks awesome
. If my computer (with all the pics) had not pooped out, I would post a pic on here.aduvall

Thanks for the replys.
Are tanks are simular.
Salty DOG- Looks like you have a compact light setup inside you tank. How well is that working for you? I know what it meant when you say its hard finding the lighting for your tank becaue of the shape. If I thought about it more befor I bought it, I would had gotten a wide canopy.
Right now, I'm just putting as many T5 as I can with reflectors.
AQUAROOKIE- What type of cusom frame did you make? I take it one that has 12 inch for MH?
How many fish are you guys keeping in your tanks?
Thanks for the pics and info.

The compact works ok but I would rather have MH if I could go back in time. I am now cycling my new 175 bow front. Thats what I would recommend LOL. I have more fish than I should for the size but knock on wood they ar all surviving. The above pic was sleep time heres a better one for you.
