Update to tank wanted to share

[coppessfam]

I haven't posted in quite awhile. I wanted to share were I am and what I have done. I just finished my latest project this weekend. I upgraded the lighting and built a canopy. I had a Catfish light with 2-65w 10,000k and 2-65w True Actinic w/ 8 led moon lights.

Trying to keep the cost down and marrage in tact I bought an AR0 VHO ballast (AS-220) w/ 1-110w 10,000k and 1-110 super actinic. Built a canopy to house the lights out of the catfish lighting and moon lights as well as the new lighting. It turned out great. WOW! What a difference. I hope nobody has any negative opinions on what I have done. Here are some before and after pictures.

Thanks! I still need to do a couple of things to fix the light coming thru around the door. But overall it turned out great.

A small piece of trim will solve that! Good work!

Nice! I do like the more "finished" look of a tank with a canopy.
