I need to ask, but are the lights built into some kind of top :question: . If so, how do you deal with heat problems :question: And is that a piece of SPS I see on the right side :question:

the tank is actualy on a book shelf ( dont worry its secure ) and the lights are cooled by a 80mm fan that is conected to my comp

this is a better look

Very cool! Nice Arch. Are you using anything to hold the rocks together?
