Canopy Lights for Nanocube
lets talk about nano lighting. most come with barely adequate lighting for low light sessile animals. that has created a whole new market for upgrades. for the true reefer this is our playland and love tinker and create. but im not adressing us, my concern is for the walk in the door customer. as Gina mentioned. you see them as you walk in the door. prominately placed to catch your eye as you walk in. they are great looking....but lets think a little bit deeper and ask why do they look good. could it be that they have someone there everyday, one of us tinkerers that love to play with tanks? my thinking, yes. but on to the subject of light. they have the stock lights. do they have any other suplimenting light? most LFS have big windows up front. hmm,,,natural sunlight supliment. look up, what do you see? a ceiling full of flouresent lights,,,could they help? they may not be proper spectrum but its light enhancement.
any other thoughts?

A walk to vacation,
A necessary sedation,
You wanna feel at home cause' you belong.
i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~
