Help me find a tank pic!

Post by ingg »

Was talking with Francine the other day at Scales, and I was telling her about a tank image.

The guy built a canopy, but it is up high, not on the tank - think of a pendant fixture like a TEK, but he had built a box instead of the fixture for retros to go in.

I can't find the dang image! It was really slick - neilanh, I want to say it was on aquariumadvice....

If anyone knows the tank I'm thinking of and can link to those images... would appreciate it!

I don't recall seeing anything like that, I'll see if I can find anything on AA though.

Yes Jeff!

It was maybe 6" deep top to bottom, it is over a big tank. I might have been built off the wall? It looks like a slim canopy suspended in air.

Good memory Jeff. A quick search of threads started by hoppycalif brought up this thread. I do believe this is what you are looking for Dave. :D

Ahh, nope, not the one.

Think of a MH fixture, a long combo fixture. Make it a box, instead, 6" tall, thin, long box - it was hung from above like how we hang the TEK's.

This may be what you were looking for Dave if you haven't found it already. It was Hoppy's thead.
