And the wife gave me a great idea. We won't be using the canopy that came with the tank, so we'll use it sideways behind the tank which will cover back of the stand & be a mini counter, of sorts....... lol

Yes Bill, but unfortunately, I only heard a full box up the whole tank, stupid head of mine lol. I might just trim the canopy shorter & keep the fans intact also.

Use the 120 for a sump and get yourself a new 180 More flexible in space and cleaner look.

+1 to unfortunately ain't going to be the clean look you're looking for
