Looks great. How do you keep your desk so clean? I would have trouble finding room for a goldfish bowl.

Got a little tired of the PCs so I decided to join all you T5 folks.

Built my fixture from clear acrylic them lined it with black. I chamfered the top edge to expose the clear and create a lighted rim effect.

Hard to take pictures of something completely black but..





I like the fixture but think I might build some legs or try to hang it some how, it's longer than the tank so when it sits right on top it looks a little funny.

That looks very neat Steve! I can't wait to see it glowing! How are the end caps affixed to the hood?
