    new bulb placement

    with a 4x54 you have like a 9 inch span of physical lights. Not sure if moving a light 2-3 inches horizontally to the back would make a big difference. IMO. Also does that fixture have 2 switches. If that is the case i would leave your dawn dusk option available especially if you do it currently.

    Acrylic and silicone?

    I siliconed acrylic baffles to make a Beta Tank. Just used a gob around the acrylic at the top behind the rim and a gob at the bottom below the rocks.

    Think this is OK?

    Just wondering if you guys would think this is OK? I wrapped the PVC around the top because i didn't want anymore threads hanging over the side of the tank. I already have both sides of the SCWD's outside the tank. This is being driven by a MAG12. Let me know what ya'll think. Thanks!!

    And it comes down to 2 - You make the call! (Lighting)

    Just received my Nova Extreme Pro 6x54 and love it. Was gonna recommend it to you until I went back and looked at your tank dimensions. I would grab the MH fixture.
