Beautiful setup. The plans for the lights looks good. Can't wait to see that. I'm thinking of something similar for my new tank. Good luck with the rest.
heres how it looks with 2 t5's on: DIY Lights here: http://www.tropicalaquarium.co.za/showthread.php?6453-DIY-54W-T5x4-Lights&p=89431#post89431
looks awesome man. you need to get some lilly pipes in there the black just spoils the look. i have the exact same frame thing for my lights on my marine tank. i suspended the frame from the roof with some stainless steel cable. only difference i got to big fat metal halides sticking out, will change to all T5's when i change the tank
nice man! i was thinking of suspending my lights like how u did too.. with that "?" hook but im going to suspend it using a bent aluminium pipe attached to the cabinet thats why my lights are just sitting on the tank for now.. lilly pipes.. would LOVE them.. im going back to taiwan in may to get married so i'll defn take a look there!! hehe..
