hersheyb Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Hey all, I'm considering upgrading my tank from a 30" to a 36" long tank, height and width will be the same, just looking to get a little more swimming room for my fish. I'm currently running a quad on my 30" long tank, which is working great, I know that the quad should have enough coverage on a 36" tank based on the info on their site, but how well lit are the ends? Anybody have a quad running on a 36" tank? can I get some pics? I got the quad less than a year ago, and don't feel like upgrading lights if I move to a bigger tank. btw this will be for a mixed reef tank, mostly lps and softies, with some sps, but the new tank i'm looking to focus on sps a bit more, Link to comment

xilez Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Was only able to snag a nighttime photo last night, but I remember I said I'd get you a pic Granted my tank is more shallow than yours, the light is about 12" from water surface and there is plenty of coverage to the edge of the tank.
