    Hah, I just did the exact same thing with my 3 lights. 4-10' sticks of 1/2" EMT, 1/2" bender (that I will be returning today), 8-2 hole clips, can of black paint, 4-1/2" polypropylene caps that I banged on to the end. I think my total was $21.00 and I went on tax free weekend in MA, so saved there too :)

    Same here in FL. I think it looks great and professional. I'm proud I did it that way. The way I done it for my 40B cost me close to 50 bucks and didnt turn out this well.

    AS you should be! There is some serious attention to detail on this build. You can tell you put a lot of time and thought into.

    Now why isn't it running yet :p

    Give me a few days to put the final touches to this and I will have water pumping through its veins.

    Thank you so much for the reply. Extremely informative and helpful. I was pricing them on the vendor sites last night.

    Tank is now wet. Worked all day mixing up water and scaping. Pretty impressed.
