I hear the suggestions of wide (30") but using radions, I thought the light spread was 2x2'. Would I now end up with dark areas. Any suggestions on how to avoid this, cuz I wouldnt mind the extra width front to back

I too would love a 30" wide front-to-back tank. My dream tank would probably be 8' long x 28" tall x 30 or 36" wide. Of course I'd need to win a big lottery prize to pay for a house big enough to have something this size inside. Also go broke filling with live rock, live stock & equipment.

realistically not many people use the full footprint of their tank, so you wouldnt need a full force 30" spread.


i have a 30 x 30 tank here if you want to see the spread of a single radion??
