You can mod the hood yourself or through a site like nanotuners, or you can take the hood off and do a lot of fun things (clip on MH's, retrofit LEDs, hang things from your ceiling, etc.)

Mod the hood for an LED retro or take the top off and give yourself more options. Only problem is worrying about fish jumping.

I loved using the 70W sunpod on my aquapod years ago. Hard to come by these days it seems.

What is in the tank. I have a 24 gallon aquapod with T5 lighting of 96w and I keep LPS. I doubt that your fixture would be enough light for LPS.
Would probably need around 50w of led.

 

[FlexLuthor]

wow really? crap!
50w?
even the par38 bulbs don't come that even two come in under 30w
