    I built a hanging canopy out of some unconventional material, Bead board to be exact and I like the way It turned out. It has an old fashioned feel to the type of cabinetry It copy's My wife and myself just couldn't hang with 2X4's even just for a temporary sitiuation, So I made this for cheap and I like It and may just leave It this way!
    LMK what you guy's and Gal's think.. Yes or No

    PS The color Is white but can be painted any color I choose If I want to change It.

    Well I finally got around to finishing the stand with the removable front access panel to get Inside for maintenance and here It Is. Plus some other shots of misc things In the tank. Finished for now as my budget Is gone so to speak and the Wifey wants things for the house. And they will be next, As I watch this tank grow out.
    Thanks to all that followed and said nice things, I hope your own tanks are doing good.
    Bill

    I'll actually try and get some current photos taken and do an update list on some new equipment I've added since the thread was last updated.
    A special Thanks to Zachb for reposting this for me from another site, As I'm computer challenged LOL
    My last addition, A Vortech MP20 Is taking up flow duties and the Tunze's are gone, Still have a Sicce Voyager, Well hidden behind the rockwork as It works well but Is butt ugly.
    Also have upgraded my Vertex IN 250 with a Bubble Blaster 3000 Pump that makes this Skimmer Rock like they wish the stock pump would (Resun Junk) I'll get some photos up and you will see how good a change this was...
    That's It for now, Tired long day, Thanks for looking
    Bill

    Love it Bill. I like the rimless look. I may have missed it but what fish do you have?
    I only see a lonely yellow-tail damsel.

    Nice, I have a feeling this tank is going to turn out excellent when the coral frags grow big.

    Keep us updated.
