Nevin,

That's a great suggestion, sadly we didn't call Ocean Aquatics when we were looking for an acrylic box...that was one of the places we didn't know about at the time (nor were we creative like Tony ...good thinking Tony!). Wendell most likey has something like this or he might be able to get it in if he was asked.

It is indeed more expensive having something shipped to Canada...yet having said that we were able to get some pretty neat stuff from Drs. Foster and Smith...it was worth the extra money.

I made mine. It is custom fit to the openings in the top of my tank. I use it all the time...not only for photography, but also any time that I'm working in there because it helps me see things more clearly.



Wow..the tank has really changed since this photo was taken!

Nice job on the acrylic box! I also like the size and shape of it....you're giving me ideas...time for another project in between getting our newest tank up and running!

Thanks for sharing!

Would you mind telling me what the dimensions are of the box you made?
