I see all kinds of posts about how high to mount lights, intensities, etc... but my question is....
why do some mount their lights long ways vs front to back?
I for instance have Hydra 64’s and I have them mounted horizontal (width of tank) where I see others have them mounted vertical (front to back of tank) any advantage or disadvantage to this? Other than I probably would need more lights mounting them vertical? I included a couple examples of my description makes no sense lol
I know these aren’t the same lights I’m just using pics as examples some mouthed horizontal vs vertical
The last pic is of my waterbox 220 and I have mine going horizantal
