Hello fellow reefers, im trying to build a small canopy for my 29 gallon nano tank. as you can see in the pic i have a coralife light fixture, 30 inches exact. the fixture has an acrylic lense and two fans. it says dont put the fixture in a canopy unless it has good air flow... so i need to build a canopy that will house this. it has to have a semi open back and can have a pc fan in it. the black trim around my tank measures 30 1/4" and 12 1/2" outisde of trim. trim is 1/2 thick. also i would like to get rid of the glass lid. can i do this if i raise the light fixtue high enough off? how high should it be? and any basic canopy dimensions or pics will help, thank you in advace :spin1:
