Ok,,so I made a canopy for the aggressive tank using left over fake wood covered foam beams from the remodel of my hotel.
I started out with lamp shade holders, bent them to hold onto tank top.
Cut out slots in the foam board to accept the supports and the silicone adhesive
add the light fixture I had from the MT from b4 I got the LED's. I had 2 of these and 4 bulbs just doing nothing, sooooo, it was just a matter of time
the dry run to see if I liked it,, I DID NOT!!!!!
So,, I re did some things.
1st I cut off the bends to lower the unit, I added some wood I peeled off some of the foam and glued it in a canopy fashion to the reflecting part of the old fixture. I then put silver reflective peel and stick nuclear grade duct tape on the undersides to make it more,, well,, reflective.
now time to cover up those wires,, hmmmm????
No dato head 4 me,, so I had to make a few cuts to hollow out the covers.
after I covered and tucked wires, covered all foam with wood vainer, cut reflective tape and let dry,,
Now on the tank,, and I like,, I like alot!!! (also, the 1st run had 1 white and 1 blue,, changed it to 1 white and 1 purple,, much better color!!)
thanks for tuning in.
