Am interested in seeing the finished parts. You going custom lighting up there, or just a canopy for fish tank bling.

Looks pretty good man. Stands out a lot wider than your stand does... but it looks like you used big timber..

Good work though

I think thats more the angle of the picture. Its only 2" wider (1" on each side) than the stand itself.

At any rate, I noticed my lights are HOT today. I'm going to need to figure out some ventilation.

Would you guys build exhaust fans into the top or just cut nice square holes and put a mesh over that?

I need to do something for ventilation in there.
