DIY, build your own. I did, wasn't hard and lot cheaper that at the LFS

You could build a wood canopy and mount lighting in it. I built a canopy for my old 46 bow front and it worked really well.

It came with a canopy but I don't know if I could do that with it.

Lol, I thought it said do you plan on keeping it.

It comes out to be about 130 gallons and so far I plan on putting my oscar and 2 of my parrots in it. I also want some corys and a school of something.

if you were keeping corals, go with 3-6 watts/gallon.
