iv been ranting on and on about finally getting my lighting system for my tank so im still undecided but i came across this http://shop.aquatraders.com/ProductD...ductCode=54204
as well as this
http://shop.aquatraders.com/Odyssea-...ct-p/54203.htm
which i beleive are pretty good prices iv read good reviews about the 2009 models
but my only problem with the single metal halide system is the location of the metal halide which is in teh center and on a bow front tank there is a support brace down teh middle of my tank
on the setup with the two metal halides idk if it will be TOO much lighting for a 46 gallon tank i have eggcrate ontop of my tank so im affraid of the support brace and the eggcrate melting
so now its time to turn to the advice of reefcentral members
