    The finished product looks really professional. Nice job.

    I can't wait until I get rid of my T5's just so I can have complete control of temperature.

    Hence the reason I said, it doesn't scratch like acrylic, it does scratch but not with reasonable care, and it can be tossed and replaced easy enough..

    PnblWzd,

    I've got six AI's over my tank and I think you did a fantastic job! I also agree with trying to keep salt creep or splash at bay. It can happen and does.

    My Blue Jaw Trigger splashed one of my lights and it did short out so a cover is a great idea. AI was fast at replacing the unit. I also think that these lights are so strong that you will see little decrease if any in overall performance.

    Those that don't have these lights just don't know how good they are. My SPS really flourish under these lights! I have yet to need to take my white led's over 65% to get growth and color!
