Where's to put the other 2 lights (20W TL and 20W AB)? At the bottom of the tank or just below the 30W TL? Which is best, put the lights inside the tank (submerge in the water) or put it outside the tank (front glass or back glass of the tank)?

Wonder why no heater is allowed? What's the best temperature for the tanning treatment?

Is it possible to tann the fish using a fiberglass or even a used bathtub? So the light come only from above, none from the side.

One more question, at what minimum size we could start tanning our aro?

Thanks.
