A.H. Supply DIY Light Enclosure help.

mjk412 · 02-12-2013, 04:43 PM

So Ihave a second 75 gallon tank set up and I really want to order the lights from a.h supply. I was going to order 2 of the 2x54w kits. Can anyone help me with building an enclosure for this fixture?

I will have:
2 sets of the 2x54w kits.

Thanks everyone!

Are you asking for advice, for a design, or for someone to actually physically help?

I live in Pittsburgh Pa so if there is anyone around the area that can psychically help, that would be awesome!

But I'll take step by step advice as well.

One bit of advice I can give you is don't put that many lights on a 75. I have one 2 x 54 kit on my 75 and it's plenty of light. I think doubling that may give you some pretty good algae farming issues.
