Does anyone know where I can get a Canopy for my 35 gallon HEX?? I know that I could probably build my own, but i just dont have the time to do it.

Thanks!

DAMN thats more than i wanted to pay $257 for oak! maybe I will build one instead and invest the money i save on upgrading my lighting.

thanks guys!
 
I made mine out of oak. It doesnt take that much oak to do it. You can use the trimmings for the inside lip, and plywood for the top (Thats what i used and it looks fine)

Basically just build it how you need it.
 
I made mine also. When I added a MH pendant, I cut a circular hole right in the top. Pictures in my gallery.
 
Well there is one picture in my gallery. Here's another since the gallery won't allow me to post another one there (?).
