    20 gallon frag tank

    Just keep the MH a good bit over the surface of the water and maybe place a fan to blow under it. Just make sure you dont shock your frags if they are coming from a tank with less lighting then this....and keep softies over to the side with less light

    When does the tank become overloaded?

    the fact that they swim or not doesnt matter what matters is the ammount of bioload they cause. I think the rule is 1/4 an inch of fish per gallon but i could be wrong.....
