2x t5 compact lights, I believe they are 12"

Thanx juan

Do you have a pic of the leathers?

If that's it, they sell that as macro algae if I am right

No clue dude, sorry man I'd just manually remove it being that it came off cleanly. Looks like a type of kelp or something. Are fish eating it?

Dictyota Maybe...I just looked it up but may not be 100% sure

on a side note, before i cut into this hood to install the led light, i did some research on replacing the entire hood. RS reached out to me and said that they do carry that hood and to replace it with: stock hood, t5 light fixture (with everything in it) as well as the fans would be $225.00 <-...

well, as long as i am not the only who couldn't figure it out, at this point i am going to look into getting that tunze skimmer this way i can keep the media basket

Perfect, thanx for the tip Paul. I'll pick one up at harbor freight as there is one down the block from me. I'll tackle this, this coming weekend. I'll keep everyone posted

It's 4" in diameter, so I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say the size is "large"

Good to know....ill measure it shortly n get back to you

I appreciate that Paul, I really do....im really leaning at this point to run my kessil on this tank...its practically brand new and I know it'll work. im going to go and get a large hole cutter to make a type of pod/recessed light with the kessil worse case scenario, I just take hood off, and...

alright cool. I have some ideas and options now. checking out some of the retrofit fit like steve's led's and rapid led's, for the price that they are asking, I might as well go with my kessil on this tank. I am going to mull this over and see what I come up with. to be continued......

correct, this is a real time thread.....thank you for the info, ill take a peek and see what I find....I was looking at something like this to install. Current USA TrueLumen Pro LED Striplight the hood itself is 24'' in length, so I was thinking of installing 2-12'' strips into that hole...

being that this will be my 1st above ground display tank, so I will want this to look as sharp as possible. I really would hate to destroy the hood just to place a kessil on it. the way it is now, I would have to cut out a hole in the top and hang a pendant from the ceiling (which I am not in...

So, after taking my colleague reefers advice, I decided to remove the old light fixture.

that's what I was thinking too...I wanted to put the feelers out there to see if this is an easy fix....which I am sure it is not
