The only type of lighting system that will work well in you case would be a metal halide pendant. How deep is the tank?

You don't have to go pendant if you can make a simple hood. I did it for a 45 hex. I just used 1 X 4" around the edge and then a 1/4" plywood top. Then I got my lights and cut out the ply exactly to the size needed for the light. Worked well and it didn't leak light out.
