Re: Can we keep him Please Mom?
Jeremy, yes there are a total of 4 bulbs 24" long but only two of them would fit over the side of the tank where the pagoda is and yes I have it as high as possible. (maybe 6" below the surface) Would it make any difference to put up the other two on the other side of the tank?

Re: Can we keep him Please Mom?
Thanks to all for the advice!! He is fully opened and grabbing bits of food when I feed the fish. Is this a good sign or is he reaching for the light?

Each 24" bulb has 20 watts, I would say it is reaching for the food. It would help to add the bulbs.

Re: Can we keep him Please Mom?
if he is fully open and feeding then he will most likely be fine for now. I would suggest you upgrade your lighting or get a tank setup that will accomidate that lighting if you wish to keep him.
