Hi! I love this site. My wife and I have been perusing various threads on here for a while, but most of our questions are answered with a search, so I saw no reason to post before this.
We currently have a 120 (4x2x2) with an FX6, and it is lit by a programmable Fluval 4' light that rests on the top.
Without spending 1200 dollars on Radion 15FW lights, can anybody recommend a good lighting option for a 6' tank as we are about to upgrade to a 750XXL, thanks in no small part to the tank envy from reading posts on this site. Although, I think the 50,000 gallon tank finally snapped me out of it to some extent.
I'm fine hanging a couple Fluval or Current USA 36" lights from some brackets. I just want it to look nice as it is a rimless tank. We will have to do the DIY net cover (Bichir/Rope FIsh/Dojos), but we'd like to keep it as clean as possible. I'm pretty sure the one 750XXL build I could find was using the radions. That seems ultra expensive to light up a fish tank to me.
Is there a bracket combo that works for this kind of setup that you all could recommend? Pictures would be great, if you have them handy. For reference, it is unlikely we would do anything besides low-tech plants.
Thanks for any advice or criticism in advance!
