Slip seeing as the forum changed I lost the picture you posted that had your canopy with MH bulbs in it. Any chance you could repost that for me?

As for anyone else, if you have made a canopy (4-6 feet long) for Metal Halide lights could you please share any pictures or plans you have?

I'm just trying to figure out how I"m going to cool this beast adequately...

if you have only one cross brace in the center then youd be better off with two 250s.

there are people that light 30 longs (36x12x18) with a single 250 and they get very nice light spread.

250s are MUCH brighter than 175 watters.

that picture of the hood wasent mine, so i need to find it again :D

the spiderlight reflectors are by far the most popular. they are pretty large though, so plan accordingly.

heres another picture I found. his tank is the standard 125 that has two cross braces, thats why he has the three lights.



im still looking for a couple more good pictures.
