To the best of my knowledge corals will not like UV exposure. They will become stressed over time and begin to bleach. Are you wanting to use the black light for looks or water purification? Black...

Is the room ventiliated? If not then marine paint is a must IMO, unless it's a huge room where the humidity won't effect it that much.

Wait a minute. The pipe is 1" ID
3.14 x .5 = 1.57
1.57 x 1.57 = 2.46" sq
3.14 x .125 = .39
.39 x .39 = .15" sq
2.46 / .15 = 16 holes

Thanks,

I voted red. A dark red or burgundy will contrast the bright colors of you're tank, it will draw ones eyes to it imediately. The only down side is that Red is the hardest color to paint, there's...

I'm using the 125 model on my 65 gallon and it seems to work well for the price I paid. Fairly low maintainence.

Getting your tank drilled or switching to another tank will be the same amount of work. Why not just have your's drilled?
