I'm going to first try a hanging canopy... where maybe there's just a little wood rim surrounding the lights, but where you can still see the water... if that doesn't work, them full canopy will be it for me as well.
Sounds cool. Post pics when finished, would love to see it.

Here it is. I was originally going to trim the canopy like I did the stand (there's normally a door on the stand too lol) but I got lazy and just wanted to fire it up. I think it looks good but more importantly it fits my lighting and gives me the space I want.

Looks great. I am about to build one for a 150. Did you worry about the weight at all?
