Ok so i just picked up a 47 gallon (very) tall , its 18wx20lx30h, anybody know where i can get a light fixture small enough to fit the top but still have enough light to actually do anything. Im planning to set this up for my girlfriend for her birthday, she has no idea erv: but im excited i got a really good deal on the tank so hopefully i can get good deals on other stuff
Will being building a stand for it too, so im all about the DIY aspect, if anyone knows a way i can make my own lighting fixtures, if that would be cheaper
right know she has an 18 gallon hex that i gave her about 6 months ago, she has 3 damsels, a spotted mandarin and 2 cardinal fish, thats going really well. With this new one im going to be stocking with 2 seahorses (not sure what type yet) her mandarin, going to have to get rid of the damsels (store credit ) and hopefully can keep the cardinals but they might be a little too excited to keep with the sea horses
any help with the lighting or any general help would be awesome

so far with lighting the best i got was this

its 11in x 11.5in x 5in so that would be more than small enough, but i dont know whats best
