So this was the one you needed the matching Double Bright light for. At least it looks that way in the picture.

Spot On - loOks great aaronfeeney. +1  for the build and sharing. I can't get over how long the tank looks. This thing is either 9' long or you got a panoramic view set on the camera.

Just read Donna's post. Tank being 8' , I totally dig long tanks. My 140 is a 7 footer - the display of a long tank is awesome!

That tank looks so awesome. Great setup and your fish will love it. They already look like they are jetting back and forth.

Oh yeah, I see it now, ha! From my iPad I couldn't make out the hood and thought it was the floor.
