That's awesome!
I was planning on a light skirt as well for my new tank and it's so hard to find pictures of anyone actually doing this. I'm still torn between this and a nice fixture. Is that the aquaconnect? |

yup thats the aqua connect, yea the only problem with this kind of set up is that is it hard to position but once thats in everything is set. I used 2x2 wood I believe, plus very light pine wood siding. The canopy weighs less then 25 pounds with both the lighting attached. Now I just gotta buy some glass for the bracing so I dont have to use any more nasty eggcrates :P.

Well I just had a huge leak on my bulkhead 3 days ago, for the last 2 days I've been trying to work with flex hoses and added a garbage can as a refugium on the side. The old sump setup was scraped and I hope this new one will last. The setup is a lot cleaner and forsure if theres a leak next time it will be a lot easier to fix. I'm sure everyone has felt that 10 gallon of water on the floor feeling and all you can do is scream and swear
