use marble tiling, but you need to waterproof it with some sort of transparent sealant, otherwise i hear it will poison your fish

lol i think i will stick to ceramic or slate then...its way cheaper then marble!
 
anyone know if a 24'' 14 watt coralife t5 colormax willl be sufficient lighting for a tank thats 36'' X 18'' X 18.5'' with a gulper cat. they probably don't like bright light...

dont have either lol. i just love rays. and a rtc is my choice in cats. i have a small amazon community tank with a 50/50 actinic bulb. pretty much any bulb that will fit your fixture will properly light up your tank
