I'm building a canopy for hanging over my reef.

It's built and painted 3x with Rustoleum Ultra Cover Primer and Paint that I picked up at HD.

Now that we're just about done, I'm having concerns about whether the paint we used is going to harm the tank.

What do you guys think?

Lots of reefers use Rustoleum paints for blacking out tank walls on QT tanks. Just let it dry until the solvents in the paint evaporate. After drying a few days, I just wipe down the new paint with a bit of vinegar and water mix with a few drops of lemon juice (we use this as a multipurpose cleaner in our house). Rinse it off with water. Let dry.
