Thanks people.. I just picked up a bathroom exhaust fan from the depot for the canopy.. That should handle the heat and humidity in the hood from the 2 400 watters.. Only cost me $14 just in case anyone was wondering

i use one for the equipment room hooked up to a humidity controller with a variable set point....kinda loud when it comes on but it works great.
did you look into how much noise the fan produce?

Tobin

Looks great man.....

Any more FTS with the lights on? It's going to look even better with the canopy and when the stand is finished

I like Radium's but not sure how they look on an icecap ballast.

radiums don't look good on ice caps Tobin, they will be more blue/white with that ballast......unless you like a more blue look. you might want to try ushio 20k.

FTS????lol.. Canopy test 1 and it went on perfect for me to have made some guesstamates on the pipes in the back,,,,Damn I good,,lol.. Now I got to pull it off and get the doors mounted or maybe I'll leave the canopy up and do a standing mount.. Lights are going up after this post.. These fans will be rusted out in 6 months,, Oh well they were only $14 and held in plce by 4 screws each....

Okay so the phates are back in the neighborhood I like 0.08 and dropping.. I'm also dosing Elos aminos to slow down the phosphate drop and still feeding mysis heavy.. Corals are doing well and I didn't crash the tank like I could have with the overdosing of vodka in the last week.. Pics up later on today..

Update: Phosphates @ 0.02 won't be dosing today..
