Hey RLV695 where in VA are you from..if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah I thought of the reflector ends too.....they are open on the ends or the sides. I am not going to cut it b/c All-Glass says the same thing about the tank bowing out in the front and it will prob pull apart over time. So I guess I need to get those VHO's or PC's on order and get some...

Yeah I thought of adding a second MH but I feel like it will be TOO much light...i mean two 175w MH over a 36g bow...man that sounds like alot..it did cross my mind though...and i really don't think that the parabolic reflector will help much because I do have the Super White reflector that...

hi, well if you have a 75g tank with (4) 55w PC over it you will have ~3watts/gallon...not bad, but you could use a little more! You would have 220watts total divided by 75gallons that is how I came up with ~3 watts/gallon, really it is 2.9watts, but you could say 3. Anyway IMO I would add...

Hey chris, just a thought but if it sounds like a watetfall is your water level lower than the water return ramp, i mean is the water falling into your tank or is it flowing into you tank and not dropping before it hits the water serface in the tank? Just a thought...i have never know this...

yeah the MH is in a custom Canopy my father and I built! It is centered of the tank and it is all lit very well except for the shadow. I have emailed All-Glass but it will prob be a few days before I get a reply. Also this is a hamilton set up with a german true 10000K bulb and it seems very...

Hi, well I got my 175w MH and have installed it over my 36g bow front. Looks really cool! Anyway I am having a problem with the brace in the middle of the tank at the top is casting a shadow right down the center! :( It has been suggested to me to cut this brace out and that will take care of...

Hi, just a suggestion but petsolutions.com has a ballast for (2) 65w PCs, made for custom sealife bulbs. It is $79 and all you will need is the two 65w PCs of your choice and a reflector. They have the smartlamps for $25/bulb. So you are looking at about $140 or so with shipping! Not that bad...

Does anyone else have any input on this matter or does what we have talked about sound like a good plan.....any other opinions or advice would be apreciated especially with the heat problems....if it is even a problem at all!?Thanks in advance!

Yeah man sounds good to me. I have a 36g bow that I have just ordered a single 175w medal halide system (10000K)for and I too will be using two N.O. actinics (7100K)for my dusk to dawn! Go for it man! German 10K is the best! I think you will be pleased!! The shimmering effect will be really...

Hi, I am new to this forum and it seems to be really cool.....I need some advice...I have a new 36 gallon bow set up with a reef and fish.....all these things came from other tanks that I had.....well my dad and I have built a custom canopy for my tank and it turned out really well! :D Now I...
