Current Nova Extreme PRO 20inch version it just came out a few days ago not sure if it was made for the solana but since the solana is 20 inch that makes it nice

Nice! You may want to alternate the bulb position to get better color spread too...

How do you like new current fixture? There are individual relfectors? or single reflectors? curious about it.

I think about get 36 inch fixture for 40 breeder.

Sweet! You did a great job with the back chambers.. looks like like you fully utilized that small space. I didn't even think about velcro for a mini-fuge in the 2nd chamber! I'll have to work on that soon for my tank. :)

individual relfectors on this very nice..yes i will spread the bulbs colors out I was not thinking when I put them in. as far as the refugium so far so good just make sure you use 3M velcro not the cheap stuff. Hey chris there was a guy on the site selling the same fuge light i have for $15! i would jump on that
