I have purchased an Arcadia 250W halide + 2x18W flourescent suspended light for my marine tank. It presently has a hood with flourescents and I plan to throw all that away.
The new light will be ceiling suspended and around 30cms from the water surface.
Question: I have external filter, protein filter and of course power and air connections so whats the best way of covering the tank? Do I get a one piece or two pieces of glass cut by a glazier and just sit them on top or should I try to make a frame.
I realise that leaving the tank completely open will result in a great amount of evaporation.
