Lighting placement

[Dez]

Thanks Stephane....

why doesn't your middle halide have a reflector? Also, are you running open tops? How do you keep the canopy so clean if it is open tops? Thanks so much..

Also, doesn't your fluorescent cause shadows if you mount them like that below the halides? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of getting the most spread with the halides?

Also, how high are your bulbs off the surface. I'm sure that makes a difference. Any other opinions? I'll have mine about 6 inches above the surface of the water.
