Building stand and canopy for 100 gal acrlyic

looks really good what lights you running?

I havent decided I was think of cutting some holes in the top and adding spotlights. 1 on each side and 3 across the front. I also am considering a 36" dual bar flourescent tube mounted on the top of the canopy.

how wide is it? because a 36 inch shop light is more like 37 or 38 inches.

tank is 44" long.

id put a double 36 inch fixture i have a double 48 inch in the canopy for my 90 but the thing is not quite done yet so i cant see how it looks.

I am just about finished this phase of the project. I took the doors and hinges off while I painted last night. Everything is back on now. I have to clear the final spot I'm going to put it in next.

Tank is in place. I will clean out the little bit of saw dust thats inside the tank then fill it, add the substrate (pool filter sand) and drain it again after the water clears (lazy way to rinse the pre-rinsed sand). then I will take media from the old tank refill and she'll be ready.
