Hex tanks can be a pain to get the right amount of lighting becuase of the over all length sometimes or to find a canopy thats fits right.The ones I have seen in pictures look nice though

Keep what you have and convert to a marine system.

Lighting can be fun but it will also give you areas of intense light and dim light which will make it easier to stock it with a variety of corals which like different lighting conditions.
