    This message is directed at melev but if anyone else knows great.

  4. LED Lighting

    My tank a 240, has 4 250watt 20K MH Lights and 4 T-5 54Watt actinic lights. I am not really happy with the light from the actinics.

  5. Drilling a 55 glass aquarium

    Question is it typically just the bottom of the glass aquarium that is tempered? Or is the sides tempered as well? I picked up a standard 55 gal glass aquarium for 25 bucks with a bunch of misc. other accessories that I haven't gone through yet.
