building 2300 gallon need help with lights

With a tank that size you will have major humidity problems anyways. You're going to need a dedicated humidity and temperature controller.

Anyone remember mr. 3000 from RC a few years back? He ended up rotting out his house in just a couple years because he didn't put in a ventilation system.

 

Skytube 400 Skylights Bring Natural Solar Light into Large Areas of your Home or Office

 

Ya looks similar, the only thing diff is that guy got 4 huge ones like about 3 to 4 times the size of the one you link. I am guessing everything back then are huge ;D

 

Solatube Daylighting System and Tubular Daylighting Devices for residential or commercial daylighting and sunlighting needs are the smart, green and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional skylights

Its a decent idea, and they are cheap to install. I help design "green" homes around here, and these things are great. Its amazing how much light they allow in. Ya just need to install them in a good local so you don't have to clean them alot, and make sure you hire a good roofer, or they'll leak like a sieve. I have 2 in my garage waiting for me to not be lazy. Would def help with lighting cost though. But if you're building a 2300G tank, kinda guessing lighting cost aren't a major factor.

 

I woulda go with that solution if not because where I live, daytime can be really , I mean REALLY!!! short, and it won't be enough for my tank.

 

true there

you would definately need a smart light to suppliment your daylight hours

 

thanks for the link any idea how man i would need.

 

thank for the warning but the room is all set up for temp and humidity
