puntific Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I have two 400 w MH with actinics in front and behind... see pics... There is a flat reflector above them. My tank is a corner 100 gal shapped like a diamond. The reflectors are flat in the plane of the hood. I was wondreing if I should get reflectors that curved some to reflect light that his heading straight into my face when I stand in front of the tank. Not to protect my eyes, of course, but to shine more light into the tank... Thanks for looking, puntific ps. I can post pictures in the way I have. How do you put them in the body of the post?

dsoz Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 ps. I can post pictures in the way I have. How do you put them in the body of the post? I upload them to photobucket, then copy the IMG script that shows up below each picture. Then I paste the IMG script in the body of my text as I type. dsoz BTW- more light in the tank is usually considered good. Unless more light would cause more heat.

Lowman Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I agree with Mikey, you should change your reflectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 wish I could rememeber who is was. Someone on here was talking about a very good way to DIY reflectors. Maybe they post here for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntific Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Isaac hooked me up with his $9 reflectors and I got them in last night. My tank is MUCH brighter! (clap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
