Michika's 28g long nano-esque tank!

Yeah your right, I probably don't need more excuses to visit more stores!

The lighting actually is for the 28g. I found I have more space then I thought and now I have the choice. I have 175w MH now with two actinics, but I find that the 175w is too far from the water surface to get all the areas I need with just the batwing reflector.

If I could do t5s I would, but I already have the PCs, and I don't really want to put out any $ for T5s at this very moment. I also have a PC size that is just perfect for my system 13", so I want to stick with them for as long as I can get bulbs!

What would you do? Go 2x 175w MH in batwing reflectors, one on each side of the tank, or o 1x 175w MH in a luminarc? With the luminarc the light hits the tank in all the right places, but I worry that it isn't bright enough on the sides.
