    DIY 75g Build: Background, Stand, ect.

    filling spaces i'd leave the spaces open so the smaller fish can have places to hide. and soak the cement board in a tub of water for a week or two and do water changes like every other day to leach out any bad stuff

    Cloudy tank

    Never put air stone under the sand, all that does is make sand go everywhere. put the air stones above the sand inside a shell or something... just off the sand, that could be your cloud problem.

    LEDS

    it would be best to just buy the LED strips... gut out a fluorescent fixture and adheise the LED strips inside... there are some that come with an adheive already on them and they can also be daisy chained. they do come in a wide assortment of colors too, but white and blue are what is needed.
