Alright, I got tired of work today after I lit my samples on fire (don't ask...) so I decided to do a quick render of a 24"x18"x16" tank with stand and my aqualight hanging above it just to get an idea. Take a look, make suggestions. And yes, I know there are no cables holding up the magic floating light... couldn't be arsed to draw them.

I'll do one for a 24"x24"x12" when I get some free time soon.

I still think a perfect cube would look cool.

So my plans got canceled for tonight and I had time to do a couple more renders. I did a 24"x24"x12", a 24"x24"x14" and a 24"x24"x24" cube. I've posted the first two, I'll post the cube later when the render finishes.

Personally I think I like the shallow style better than a full cube. I want to be able to look down into the tank and have something that I can reach into easily.

Ha, It seems I have that exact tank.
This is my 24x18x16 frag tank with a coralife pro 150mh
I have only just got it running maybe 2 months ago, light is definately enough for what I need and coverage is good
Couple quick pics

Where did you find your tank or did you have it made?
