    DIY Reflector for Metal Halide

    Hello everyone!

    I'm about to install a 250w metal halide in my 65g tank but i need to make some kind of a reflector. Does anyone have any links, pics, or ideas on what I can use??

    You can use aluminum flashing from HD its cheap and easy to work with. Or if you can find some spectral (polished) aluminum (preferably locally) and form it yourself....some ppl also just paint their inside canopy white for reflection, but thats for the cheapest way out.
