this was a custom hood I had to make for my Reefled's . the tank mounting arms are not wide enought to go over the plastic rim of the tank.

I love the custom hood! How long did it take you to make it?

It actually didn't take that long. painting it took longer. My only issue was I use glass tops and didnt take that into account. The glass panels hit when op[ening the lids. I should have made it 2" higher. might trry again and make it more decorative.
 
I had the reef led 90's that I purchased individually over the years. one of them burned out though. so I have since upgraded to the G2 115's. much better by far.
