Lighting placement

[Dez]

steve,

I think you get the picture. If you have the bulbs front to back...then you are going to get more of the area lit than if parallel with your sockets on either end. Each end of your tank won't be as brightly lit I guess. But if you mount it perpendicular with the sockets at the front glass, then the whole front of your tank won't be as brightly lit right?

Should we therefore mount it in the center of the 2 x 2 area?
