    DYI 40 gallon tank. Is 1/4 acyrlic good?

    I'm gonna order a full piece to fit into my top. Does this rest on top for euro style or sit inside? If I go 3/8 or 1/2 will it help stop the bow?

    Building a Custom Acrylic 40gal tank. Questions about lighting.

    I'm not really sure what led lights are Good for corals. I had an old jbj nano 4 years ago. I had to sell it. I'm just getting back into it again. I'm really asking for some suggestion. I'll up the lighting to 25p if it's possible for this tank
