Hey Steve, looks great and best of luck, I really like that clean look and the efficiency of the plumbing!

If it's not too late there might be one suggestion that I would make...

I notice that your fan holes are quite high, closer to the bulbs. I originally had my canopy like this and found that cooling was not very good. Someone on RC suggested that I turn the side panels around so that the fan holes were slightly below center. Essentially leaving the bulbs alone but cooling and drawing the air below and blowing over the water. By doing this I lowered my tank temp to 78deg throughout the summer.

Of course you may have other ways of cooling like a chiller or a fan over your sump but just a thought!

Best,

Rob
