How to be a complete Idiot and waste all your money and time.

[OCDP]

Well, I am going to talk to the rents about putting a couple holes in the ceiling... but then I'd need to fork out even more doh for the hanging unit. So perhaps the shelf idea ... but at the same time, I DO plan on setting up a new tank within the next 3-4 months .. I would just hustle more to get it going, as I really want to use my new fixture.

I'll keep you guys updated....

Thanks for all the tips and suggestions, I appreciate it.

Oh, and PS: I can't use the glass lid idea, because the fixture is too wide, it's bigger than the top of my tank, and with the skimmer and AC500, it's a no go unfortunately.
