Wow Very nice.

Thank you bayside always has great stuff. This time I actually had money to get something lol

In other news I got ambitious and finished my hood. I still have to lacquer it and seal the inside so I guess my next project will be the cooling fans. I also have to make the corner trim and back trim and attach the baseboard but if I'm lucky it should be completed this weekend. Here's a couple pics tell me what ya think.

Wow! Seriously this is gorgeous! Your tank and stand are just amazing!! Gotta say, I'm jealous!

Ya that turned out really nice man! Wish my canopy looked that sleek!

That is a very nice setup. Well done on the woodwork. Your a crafty kinda guy..
180 looks like a nice size to work with. Lotsa tang room.

Lol thank you but don't be. I have hours of toothbrush scrubbing ahead of me. My green hair algae has exploded to epic status my left side of the tank looks like a woolly mammoth. Even my seahare eats an inch square then goes to the sand bed for a nap till the next day.

Thanks guys it helps that my father is a carpenter but I did goof up a little in a couple spots lets hope the wood filler does its job lol

I should also mention as you may have seen from the photos the front pops off for tank maintenance as well and is held in place with a couple of these

Kien doncha know its not what's on the outside but what's on the inside that counts. And your tank and others like it is my inspiration to try and achieve awesome color and coralscapes

Until then I own a flowing hairy armpit lol

I didn't really need to know about your armpit but thanks for sharing?

I keep meaning to re-do my canopy to be more sleek and house my lights just like yours but I never seem to get around to it. Instead I consider my canopy kinda ghetto.
