yeah I have to go MH lol... tank isn't wide enough (15.5x15.5inch footprint) to use any sort of respectable T5 without light hanging over the sides of the tank..
I did see a golden dwarf moray that was about 8inches at the LFS today for only $200 (eat your heart out rip off artists selling them for $350+!!!)... out and about too... ate in front of me, not shy.. dang.. I might have to find away to do a stealthy screen over the top of the tank lol.
