Would this lighting work for a 29 gallon tank that measures 30 inches long, I really like the combo if you think this will work for my tank. I know it is 20 inches and with the legs it extends to 27 inches but if i have a glass top to put the legs on because it wont reach accross the entire length woiuld this work?

If you search you will find tons of not so hot feedback on aquatraders and Odyssea lighting. This one looks really updated tho so some of the fire issues may have been resolved. If you get one, let me know how it goes

Oh, and 175w DE HQI bulbs are really weird, everyone else either has 70, 150, or 250. Finding replacement bulbs may be impossible.
