I have the dosers just need to get them setup. They were the only piece of equipment that came from Phil's tank and will be part of my system. Hoping they will help with stability!

Yes it is!

Planning to grab a few pieces for the canopy tomorrow and then onto the painting process (going to be a white stand). Does anybody have suggestions on what type of paint to use?

Here is what I got done today.

I would also use oil base it goes on smoother than a latex but it will take days to dry

Only paint left at this point. I should be ready to start plumbing and filling her up.

In the last picture you can see how the LEDs will sit I plan on adding twin tube t5ho's to the underside of the boards the LEDs will rest on.

Thanks James! It was a labor of love.....hard, but I don't think I will ever use a manufactured stand again!

I learned a lot figuring this thing out!

Last pic is horrible but the mushrooms glow like crazy and the hammers should be a nice addition for someone.
