Did you consider not using one? Pretty small tank and just, or mostly, clams right? Might do better without one.

I like how you leak test right above an extension cord fixed up with duct tape. That's something I'd do. Go ahead ask how many times I've received the 60hz tingle.

Seriously though, system looks great. I'll be watching this thread closely, might be a good winter project.

have you looked at T5's? They would cover the whole length of the tank with no spotlight look and you'd easily be able to get 4 across the tank. Plus there would be no heat issues.
