I am putting together a second tank and had a few questions I thought RC might be able to help me with.
My current tank is a full DIY 40g with a DIY cree led fixture I made. I have noticed if I am sitting near the tank that it is almost impossible to look at due to how bright the light is coming off the fixture. This isnt a huge issue because of the location of the tank you are almost always standing when looking at it.
However this next tank will be located where people will be sitting and I do not want to have this effect. I know I can fix this by adding a canoapy but that is so unpopular now and I am not a huge fan of the look.
What would everyone suggest to minimize this issue? Also I am looking in the 60 - 75 gallon range, needs to have low-iron glass and can be rimless (not a deal breaker).
Any recommendations & links?
Thanks All!
