Lighting
Hey guys Im looking into a Sunlight Supply Tek Light. It would be over a standard 29gal, so im going to hang it from the ceiling. I want my tank to be sps dominant so should i get the 24" with 4x24 watt t5s? Or the 36" with 4x39watt ts5 or the 36"with 6x39watt t5s? btw i dont mid that the 36" will be 3" over each side of the tank (thats why i would hang it).

in my opinion, it's going to look silly if you have to hang it. You might not regret it now, but after a while it'd probably get annoying.
That said, I think you'd be fine with a 4 bulb 24 inch fixture. If you're not stuck on T5's, take a look at a MH pendant. 150 watt MH plus 2x T5's would be great.
