i like it. I might have to follow suit and build a canopy for mine so i can do the mounting similar to yours. I like how clean it looks.

Thanks . I think Its pretty slick myself lol. All it is screw in eye hooks and used the ends of what is in the lights mounting kit.

And finally some new plumbing pics. It's been running since Sunday at about 5pm. Will take better pics of the scape once it clears up.

Looks good man!!

[Hondatek]

Thanks. It's not cloudy anymore so here is a new pic.I think I will change the left side somemore. Also I already have some brown bits of algae growing on the scrubber screen.

Here is the growth on the scrubber . Not bad at all for the first week with no fish . It's actually more than I would expect. Ammonia has dropped from 2 to .25 over the past few days . Nitirites are holding at .25

Looks like you're off to a great start!
