I don't get the hype people get over lightning storms.... after spending about 7 years of the last 20 at sea, I can honestly say I have seen only one lighting storm. living in victoria for 20 years I can count the lightning storms on one hand. lightning is more common in dry enviorments than it is in moist ones so why are so many people trying to make lightning on there tanks? now if you want to get realistic install a bunch of fans that can blow 1/2 the water out of your tank onto the floor then you have a hurricane simulation

So you do agree... it might be cool? You may not pay a cent for that feature... but someone else might
