wow... very pretty

Now - question... Obviously you retro'd a MH fixture, on top of that and the canister, what else did you have going? I see you drilled 2 in the bottom down through your desk for the canister, ja?

Thanks!
The MH was a retro into a halogen drafting lamp fixture. I routed the cannister filter plumbing down through a computer cable slot that was already in the desk. The cannister filter was midified with submersible lights to grow chaeto and a 50w heater to maintain temp. I also had a tee fitting in one of the return lines which injected ro/di topoff water in real time from my chemical metering pump. The system was small but ran by itself no problem for two weeks when I took vacation. (I was too scared to push it further but now I wish I had - just to see the full potential of the system)

Cheers,
