I saw Aquarium Specialty is now selling Coral Vue Lumen Bright Double Ended Pendants (Dimensions: 15"x15"x10"). I plan to buy to of these to replace my current fixture for the holidays. My question is will this reflector be too large for a tank with dimensions 48"x24"x24"? I will be running two 14K Phoenix DE bulbs on a PFO HQI magnetic ballast. I don't want to have shadows so will I have to have the pendant suspended closer to the waters surface or further away? I'm hoping I can keep the light 6" about the surface since it is 15"x15" compared to my current 6"x2.5" reflector which doesn't leave too many shadows. How do I get rid of shadows, move the fixture closer to the waters surface?
