My unfinished canopy and stand should be arriving tomorrow for my newly ordered 125. I am planning on staining and watersealing it. But, I thought I read somehwere that you should not use a gloss on the inside of the canopy. Should I jsut waterseal the inside and not stain it? I was going to use Minwax that is the stain/poly in one. My lights will be the retro 3x 200w MH and 4x80W T5 mounted to the top of the canopy. I also plan on painting the back of the aquarium black as the 2 drilled overflows are black. Any particular brands of paint I should use/stay away from.
