ok like all of us i am addicted to this hobby and like mayn of us the sky is the limit but there is a clear glass window blcoking us when ever we try to exceed the limit, that glass window is our wives/girl friends... :| sounds liek i have marage problems :) but i dont luckily.

i wrote an article about how much we spend on tanks and once i got a lot of responses i showed my wife and she started to laugh aand said sounds like i wrote this sick to my stomach part and started to laugh and said if you really want to start another tank you can but you have to use the old 40 gallon freshwater tank in brians room(my son).

i jumped with joy except for the fact of the size of the tank i wanted to go bigger not smaller but i am still getting another tnak. for this tank i am going to go with and sump and skimmer and metal halides. i would like to buy metal halides so i can keep clams :-D but i do not know much aboout these lights can someone give me info about have a smaller tank and where to purchase matal halides already set up in liek a box thing not sure what yyou call it liek a casing


thanx in advance

Personally,

I'd need to know your dimensions on this 40 gallon tank. Then I can better help you decide which lighting, fits your needs.
