pnkrcklives Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 You could put some egg crate or mesh over the tank will help diffuse the light. If you have some pictures it would better help us what to suggest to solve the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Knowing the dims of the tank would be helpful too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
