I have an eclipse 3 top on my 37gl tank it comes with a light on the front but it can be easily upgraded. I sugguest to buy the PowerQuad Retrofit System which goes for a around $115.00. It comes with the reflector, electronic ballast and everything else you will need to set it up. You can either take off the bulbs on the eclipse and screw on the reflector or take off the entire lamp and build a wooden box that fits over the eclipse if neccessary I can send you my design. It will give you a good 96 watts on PC, enough to keep a few soft corals. Hope it helps.
