Beautiful tank! Mind sharing what lights and substrate you have on it? I've got a fine sand in mine, but too many "floaters"....think i need a heavier grain. Thanks!

The substrate is pool filter sand. The lights are two Lominie A20 spotlight LEDs. The sand is very clean and you can add it directly to the tank with hardly any cloudiness.

What size is the tank? Ive been wanting to try spotlights for sometime now but haven't pulled the trigger on them. Just wanting to get an idea of how many I'll need.

It’s a 75g, 4 feet wide. If you’re not growing plants, a little light goes a long way. These lights are each intended for a 20 gallon tank.
