    and it was not so easy to get all the ballasts connected and behind the tank with drip loops on all 4 lamp cords too.

    Since this has officially become a build/progress thread, I've moved it to the Show of Your Fishtanks forum :D

    No, I photoshopped the 180 gallon into my living room just to see how it would look. 8)

    Thanks, I copied the VHO setup exactly from the way Tangster designed his on his 180 canopy before that 20-something year old tank sprung a leak. Now that he has a 90, where do you think I got those 6 ft UVL SuperActinic VHO bulbs? ;)
    The MHs are Lumenmax 3, 250w HQI with 14K bulbs.
