looks like I missed an update here, lol.
Anyway, got the canopy built & painted. Added 3 2" holes to the back of the canopy for ventilation. Will watch the temps, but with the LED's there shouldn't be that much heat gain.
I also modified the stand to give me a little more height & added a base for the sump.
Tonight I water tested the sump & function of the baffles, things are working the way they should. I also put about 17" of water in the tank for a water test & will be leaving that till tomorrow evening to double check for leaks & make sure nothing breaks.
The plan is to move it from the garage to its location this weekend & get everything plumbed & ready to fill. I want to aquascape the dry rock before filling it up. its looking good to be running in another week or 2.
