I'm planning on building a canopy with metal halides and t5HO in it. I already have the t5ho on my tank. I'm wondering what the best design for a canopy would be. I can only think of three designs. the first is where there are two doors on the front of the canopy, the second is where the front "flap" lifts up, the third is where the top hinges to lift up the entire front half of the canopy. I"m thinking that the third is the way to go but I wanted to know if anybody else had a better idea. Also, is there a preffered way to construct a canopy or a prefferred material? Should I do something to the inside to protect against the saltwater and prevent it from being damaged by the heat of the lights and how?
I know I could slap this together in one weekend and then regret everything I did until i get the money to redo the whole thing, so I thought I would ask around before I started. thanks for any help!
