Need Help With Lighting Advice For 6Ft Tank

[jarcher1390]

Hi i've had to scrap my tank lid as it was falling to pieces. Im thinking of making a new lid but i just thought is there any pre made lightning units for this length of tank.
I don't have many plants so it does not need to be extensive i just need a simple lighting unit.

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated

Thank in advance Jonny

I am sure that 6 foot tanks have hoods available for them. Yours came with one. I made my own from light weight lumber and mounted fluorescent fixtures in it.

Yer they generally do but my dad made the cabinet as he did not like the ones which came with the tanks so we had to make the lid as well and well it needs re doing. i have plans to make one myself but i was thinking a pre made thing might be better.

Thanks Jonny
