My nc6 arrived today from NanoTuners and it looks great.
Chris you do a great job boxing & shipping and thanks for the Nano-Reef discount. Ordered the nc6 Sat and it arrived Tues, that’s fast. I did some side by side comparisons with an extra ALIFE 7 I have laying around and the quality of construction on the nc6 hood just blows the ALIFE away. The nc6 and the ALIFE 7 are almost exactly the same size. I’ll try to post some comparison pics tomorrow. Now it’s time for planing the mods. Rick

Alife is a brand of aquarium products. The Alife 7 was popular around So Cal fish stores a couple of years ago. The Mini-Reef Aquarium on the web site below looks like it’s the Alife 7.

Naw, that doesn't. I completely trashed a PS2 and they still gave me a new one, even thought it was my fault. My guess is that I can't buy their games if my game system is broke

Three lights jammed in the hood.
(1) 18 watt & (2) 27 watts. 
The 27 watt bulbs just fit, but don’t leave room for the pins. I removed one of the two brackets that hold the hood open, drilled holes in the side for the pins and connectors. I also made my own pin connectors by finding electrical clips the right size to slid tightly onto the bulb pins and covering them with silicone air tubing. I pulled one bulb out a little to show better. I made a new lens to cover the side the pins and power are on. 
I replaced one fan with a scroll fan to blow air between the reflector & hood. 
I installed connectors for the low voltage, so I could use the original plugs. and made up a LED light for the fuge. The LED has 48 - 5MM 12V narrow beam white lights and is super bright. The LED is from BestHongKong.com http://www.besthongkong.com/modules.php?na...products_id=161 I attached the LED to a small fan-heat sink to keep it cooled. 
Here is a pic with lights on. 
Pic of the lighting setup
