Physh1 Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Ok....I've got a canopy coming for my minibow and I'm gonna drop a 70 hqi on there w/ a 32 w pc. What are you guys doing for glass...more along the lines on are you just having glass covers made or ..... Looking for some glass ideas because I do no plan on covering the tank. I may try to build a glass cover around the bulb and intend on using a fan for cooling. Any ideas or pics would be niceB) Cameron Link to comment

jocole37 Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 hey matt, may i ask how you secured that fan onto the hood? i doesnt look like you used screws, looks awsome by the way. Link to comment
Physh1 Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 Looks like some metal c-channel to me. I bought some a few days ago as I decided to mount mine as he did. Cameron Link to comment
MattGecko Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 The metal "C" channel holds the glass. I used very small eye screws to hold the fan. Heres a better pic. Link to comment

Jahkaya Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Beautiful hood, but a bit pricey. Though I could never make something that nice. Link to comment
MattGecko Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 The glass is 1/4" tempered with the UV coating. Link to comment
