    Post Picture of hood/tank/stand, but problems with refugium leaking and pipe fittings

    Well, lots of work went into this already. Does it look decent? Suggesitons and opinions please. For some reason my separations in my sump/refugium isn't stable enough, but i've got enough silicone gunk all over my handds today...hehe. I'll post pics of sump soon when i get it working.

    Here it is:

    SOrry, the tank is lit by 2 X 250 Iwasaki 6500k for now, not burnt in yet, and no actinic blues.

    Well I think you stole my idea!!! LOL. I am trying to get the guts to build my own stand. My biggest gripe with my current stand is the 6" center support between the doors...what idiot thought that a 8" opening was enough? (or am I the idiot for buying the thing.)

    Anyway, I figure that if I used 4x4s for the supports I should be able to nix the center support.
