Fluval spec v reef build
Just started up a fluval spec v reef tank in my office. Will post pics soon. The only problem I'm having is with the lighting, I can't really decide what type of fixture to get. I'm not looking into anything that is DYI. Essentially because I don't want it to look tacky or bulky considering the tank will be displayed in my office. I really like the marineland reef LEDs and the current USA LEDs. The tank is about 20" long however the water area is about 17" can I get some input from you guys. Thanks

The AquaIlluminations Hydra 26 would be a good choice, although theey are not inexpensive.

Consider the Innovative Marine Skkye lights. They're relatively small, sleek and affordable led's. They pop-up used on eBay from time-to-time. In fact I have some in a box in the basement because I moved up to the Maxspect Razor (another good choice if you want a timer, but pricey).
