The Odyssea light fixture that came with my new(used) 90 gallon was full of salt creep. I am trying to take it apart and give it a good cleaning. I got the ends off and I can't figure out how to get to the bulbs and pull the bottom panel off. I know there has to be a way to change the bulbs but I can't figure it out for the life of me. I unscrewed all the screws that I could find but there are none on the top or bottom. I would appreciate any help a good seasoned reefer can give me. Anyone is welcome to come here anytime or I can bring it to you.

Well I beat the hell out of it and got all the panels off! But I lost the glass cover for the halides and the plastic cover for the PC's in the war! I noticed some burnt wires. I was hoping maybe in the future I can use the parts and make a custom hood for the new tank. I will have to re-wire it. This can be a project for my husband. I can use the Nova Extreme Pro for the 90gal and put the PC's back on the 55 gallon. I hope the Nova has enough wattage for 90 gallons. I will have to do for now. Here are the pics. As you can tell it was not loved.

Your T5 fixture is fine for the 90 just keep the sps in the upper half of the tank.
