Default 3 Foot Tank Write Up

Here are a few pictures and short write up to give you some ideas for installing a 3 foot tank setup from our customer Martin Maisonneuve

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lateral View of the Setup. I've glued the Fan on top of the Heat sink with some superglue. The heat sink itself it fastened into the Canopy using some L shaped bracket from RONA. Now these could be even closer to the Glass if I simply add another metal bracket....they would now get to about 1/4 from the glass!!!



The Dimmer box, all the wires are terminated into a Plastic electric outlet box with a cover on it. I've drilled 2 holes for the knobs and glued the board in the inside with superglue. It's clean a protected !!!



Wire connections from the wall going toward the Drivers and cables going to the Drivers are all terminated into another plastic electric Outlet and secured with a cover.



Tank view so that we can see the Canopy door open, the bracket and the LED and the tank....at this point the lights are only at 75%......stronger at this point would burn the Clove Polyp and the Zoa that are already in the tank.
