2. does the ambient light of the room contribute to the tanks, or is most of the lighting acheived from the HQI lights suspended from above.
You know I love the tanks, but I'm more drawl into the behind the scenes approach to the HQ.
Thanks again for the great pics!

Hi Hop,
1) The flow in the aquarium was low. you could hardly see the water current. Very slight ripples at the top of the tank. I think his glass returns are part of the reason. They open up so wide that its not like a super jet pushing everything around. The plants in the tank dont seem to move much.
2) Beside the light fixtures from the tanks, the room we very cleanly lite. But i also think that alot of the light comes from the tank fixtures.
Here are a few more pictures for everyone! Thanks for looking and the compliments!
