Lighting Ideas Please

[The Barb]

hi,

want to do away with the hood on my tank, but cant afford an overtank luminaire

are their any cheaper ways to do it? would 4 arc pods be enough?

tank is 48" long, no plants will be housed either, just a texas cichlid.

Depends what you want the end result to look like. Do You have means of having a light suspended over your tank? e.g: http/www.litecraft.co.uk/Products/Product.asp?id=7098
