Has anyone tried this? Did you keep any coral with it and if so, what kind??

Where you able to get the legs to extend far enough to sit atop the tank brace/rim? What does LPS stand for? I cant remember LPS, SPS lol.

well the adjustable legs (the ones u can flip up and down) did not fit, and thats wat i had. i heard teh regular legs may fit. all i did was cut two pieces of egg crate and layed them on the left and right sides of my tank. then put the lights on top of that. its pretty sturdy.
LPS = large polyp stony coral
SPS = small polyp stony coral

Thats cool with the eggcrate, thanks. I've been wanting to grow some SPS, LPS's for a while but so many around here advise strongly against it. However I have seen pictures of a green montipora digitata bein grown in a 7g minbow under a mear 32w PC. Btw these were a series of photos overtime showing the growth of it.
