Hello
I have a 30 gallon long reef tank, mostly soft corals and polyps etc. Right now I have a 36" light ( 1 96watt 1200K Actinic and 1 96watt 1200k white ).I can not use the legs that came with it because then it does not fit the top of the tank...too long. What size light is used for a 36" tank? (Dimensions that is) Is a MH light going to be too much for that tank or not. I was thinking of going with 175 watt MH and 2 Actinics. I cant hang it so Ill need to use legs. Will I sunburn everything?
Thanks all
