I have a 48" dual strip light fixture that I made for my 75g. I never used it. I got a free 30g-35g today thats 36" long. Could I use the strip light on the tank and have 6" hanging off each side. Also its got about 80 watts, On a 30g could I do medium-high level light plants or just medium.

Hi,
The short answer is Yes, of course you could use it.
However, I'll bet that it won't be long before you purchase
a hood that properly fits. All that glare from the over-
hanging bulb at the ends would drive me absolutely nutz!

I'd try the medium plants, but be aware that perhaps not
all of the medium plants might work.
