I have been thinking about lighting lately and I have an interesting idea. For lights I have a couple of 96watt compact floresents http://www.ahsupply.com/96watt.htm. Since these are rather bright with the special reflector I have been thinking of putting a piece of plexiglass in the hood between the tank and the light. Then painting the top of the plexiglass so that I get a lighting pattern like the sun comming thru trees. I can paint some parts of it black some part different transparencies of green, yellow etc. I wonder if could get the kind of look where you have "beams" of sunling coming into the water? The tank it would be used in is http://www.aquariumadvice.com/viewtopic.php?t=31078&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 or will be if I ever get the thing done
