Wife called and said replacement top is in. So I should be able to cut out the back strips and get that installed.
Working on my lighting right now. I am going to see how the lights off the 210g look on it. I have the current Satellite+ fixtures but they are only 36", so 6' of lighting on a 8' tank. Not sure if it will be bright enough.
I also run two sets of lights and timers to create a dusk/dawn effect. The other lights I had bought some years back and then they were discontinued. I recently found two more to complete my project.
These create a pinpoint light which works really well in having dark areas of the tank and a few brighter spots where the light shines.
