    Look awesome man. Sucks that your other tank started leaking but I would say it all turned out for the best.

    Noo..I like your 46. I thought about getting one but wanted something a little different.

    It definitely did!


    I went ahead and mounted the light. I may take a picture of how I did it later. It's not real pretty but it's solid.

    I want to go back to a 14K asap. The 20K seems to wash everything out..there isn't much contrast.

    Here's a couple pics of how I did the light..figured it'd be easier than explaining it. Just bent a few 90 degree brackets and bolted them down.
