Well I got the light hangers all roughed up so all I have to do is paint and drill some holes. This picture thing is getting annoying.

ok here is the stand all painted. Also you see the light hanger is made out of 1/2 inch concuit. I will be painting them black so they blend in nice. MY Sol's will be mounted to them with the factory bolts. Changed the hardware on the stand to the brushed alluminum. Any quetions let me know. the pic without the tank is after i leveled the hangers.

Yeah Mp10 is gonna be killer. You get all different mods and you can raise the % of power. It's pretty killer.

Looking forward to it. All I really need now is my auto top off and figure out a top so I don't get any carpet surfers

Ya may wanna keep it topless. Do some research. Most keep it topless for a reason. It's pretty interesting. You can order a screen built just for your tank from Bulk Reef Supply. It will keep jumpers in but aid in the oxygen exchange and help balance pH etc...

Haha that almost sounded like I knew what I was talking about!!

Seriously though. Check that screen thing out and read up on the lid thing.

I meant the screen route. Didn't know they actual made one for what you need. I knew they sold the stuff but not that they made it.
