Default Reflector Question

If your tank is 15" inside to inside how wide should your reflector be? I am trying to do a canopy so I can setup a tank with VHO bulbs, and maybe eventually 2 halides

I found a reflecter at www.reefsolution.com which is 48" long and can expand from 5 1/2 inchs in width to 8 1/2 inchs wide, is this enough?


Should I use a Metal Reflector? or jjust some good old white paint? I want to do this right the 1st time//


Jim
