Hey guys. Got my 75 gallon resealed and cycled, now onto the cosmetics! It did not have a cover when i purchased it, and unfortunately i am unable to find one that will work. The tank is an older 1/2" glass model without the center brace. 48"x18"x21" tall i believe? Currently i have purchased a dual T8 fixture from a hardware store and have that sitting on top. Less than aesthetically pleasing. I hope to build a canopy that will be about 4" tall and mount the ballasts and bulbs onto that, with it painted to match my stand. Does anybody have any recommendations on how to build one that wont be destroyed by the water over time? Would a paint seal it reliably?
