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

i'm pretty sure you can use granite. silica is not harmful to fish. just harmful to us.

there's a little more then just the silica to worry about when it comes to granite...

from research Ive done i have discovered not all granite is safe ...its also expensive...
 
small update...

i ordered the tank today, i decided to go with a 56 gallon tank that is, 36''X18''X20 high'' instead of the 52 gallon - 18'' high... the tank is made by hagen if anyone was wondering.

i still have a few questions.

1. i need help deciding whats the best lighting for a gulper cat tank that's 36'' X 18'' X 20'' high. keep in mind im pretty sure the inhabitant does like very bright light..i may be wrong... some please correct me if so! ( i was thinking a 24'' 14 watt coralife t5 colormax )

2. what size of drift wood should i look for? again the tank is, 36'' X 18" X 20'', should i give the gulper lots of space or can the wood be very large?

3. still need some advice from tiled tank experienced people. i looked at the tiled tank thread but found it more inspiring then informational lol.. so any help with safe tiles would be very much appreciated

thanks
 
i like your idea... I would do it too if i could
 
welll... i will have an ectra 20 long =) think one could fit in there?
