    Congrats on the order! You are gonna enjoy the build! Does your 72 have a brace in the middle?

    I wont lie after the mantis tank; LED's for the 75 is the next brain stormed project so I need a role model! lol.

    Not so soon but I will be re-doing the pretty similar thing for my 90 in the future.

    Make sure you take pics during the build!
