    Lighting suggestion

    I'm looking for suggestions for lighting my new build tank is 48x24x16 but it's a peninsula tank so honestly I need to light around 43" long. I'm running t5 dimmable but wanting something different. And I don't like Radions. I've attached some photos of the build. As always THANKS MY FELLOW REEFERS!
