i grabed my 18" today and it is SO much brighter ... but then my little tanks (the light straddles them) don't have enough light!

You may want to consider a nice desk or floor lamp that can be placed above the tank. Lots of different looks. Easy to use LED bulbs or cheap Daylight CFLs to get the amount of lighting you desire.

Could also hang a pendant fixture of some sort over the tank from the ceiling or from a hanging arm.

thanks... i had a feeling the only option was to add a light, no way to upgrade the finnex.
