Mike, thanks for the GYRE and it does fit horizontally in the side. Will set it up later today.
Your nem tank is coming along nicely.
 
Hey mike I know this thread is old and the equipment is gone but I have a question regarding those lights. Back when I was setting up my tank and searching for the best quality lighting I could get my hands on as cheap as I could I came across numerous listings on ebay and amazon for light bars like that (chinese) I went back and forth read g the specs on all the listings regarding things like the type of LEDS the colors the watts ect and compared them to name brand and proven light systems what I found was a lot of listings that said aquarium coral lighting fell short in being powerful enough or diverse enough in the color spectrums thought there were a few listing out there that came pretty much close to offering the same set up as the name brands. SO.. my question is how do you think they do compared to the name brand set ups ? Are they good enough for coral? Are they bright enough to light the tank properly does the cost match the quality? Any ways I'm just looking for some advice about them cause I am still concisering adding more lighting to my system
 
The lights I had were able to grow coral I had a piece of monti cap on bottom of a 29g that grew well. White was at 20% blue at 50% . I feel they will get the job done well definitely bright enough. They aren't maxspect, ai, ect.. but they work. big dollar lights blend better have better leds and more programming in my opinion.
