What kind of lighting do you use? From the profile of the canopy Im guessing Powercompact or VHO.

wow. wish i had a 135. how well does the mbu live with everybody else? how long has this tank been set up? is that a newer amazon sword towards the middle? those look like emerse grown leaves on it. keep up the good work.

zuppie, search around the internet with google and maybe the diy forums for info for building a canopy. as for diy co2, your tank is WAY to big for it not too be a pain in the butt. most people go pressurized at around 30 gallons.

You really dont need a lot of info to make a canopy, I drew up my own plans and everything for mine. I think you will have to get a CO2 tank and regulator for a tank that big, unless you want about 10 2 liter bottles under the tank.
