I just torn this tank down for my move last weekend, new photos when it fills in.

How'd you like the 1x65w Coralife? I've been having trouble finding many options for a 30" 29g, and was considering that same light.

Beautiful tank btw. I love the scaping!

I only ran that light for a little while when I got the tank, it was decent, but I ended up adding a NO-dual t-5 as well. Much better light and can grow anything pretty well. 65 will do the job but the rear corners tend to not get enough light.

You are right lighting a 30" tank is a little tricky.

I had to resurrect this thread to tell you that I'm incredibly envious. I wish my 29g looked even remotely like that. Beautiful tank.
