Building new canopy
 

I just started building my canopy that will house 4 Vho's and 2 200 watt Pc bulbs (man these things are sweet). My questions are... How high should the bulbs be above the water surface and what should I use to make the of the canopy water resistant? Thanks in advance

Hello Im running 2 MH HQI 150Watt and 2 PC ANT on a 75gal. I built mine 12inch high
ran 2 fans blowing and 2fans blowing out. As for paint and such i went to the paint store got some sealant good for 50year and has good flex also picked up a can or marine primer and 2 cans of marine paint gloss. I then used the sealant on all corners, screws, crack or whatever i saw, then primed it all 2 coats then painted the inside of the hood white with marine paint and black on the outside. :lol: :cool: Now it looks good nice and smooth easy to clean pretty much water proof.

Where could I get Marine Primer? Thanks.

i went to a local paint store like general paint or color your world dunno what u have where u are but just go in and ask them for a marine paint and primer and get GLOSS cuz its easy to clean then Flat.
