    I am a cabinet maker an knew owner to also a 55gal. As anxious as i am wanting to get it set up. Patience pays off an i should make something like this! I like how its all hidden, an like u said, muffels the sound. Love everything about it. Handles an all. Thanks

    This is very cool....we’ve never been huge fans of these because of the humidity where we live and the destruction it can do to the wood....yours came out awesome and looks lovely though....we like our tanks nice and tall and have always had such high stands that no one ever even notices what’s going on with the top....but again yours looks great and you’re father in law did a great job....👍

      Thank you! We keep the glass lids on as well, which usually helps with the humidity on this one, but most canopies do have that issue. Appreciate the comment!

    I did a similar build. But I had the weight bearing block run the entire side of tank. And tested the light on the blocks, that way I can adjust the light from front to back and more light spread with it being raised an 1.5”.

    Maybe I missed it but what's the total height of the canopy? I'm building one from my 60 gallon (24" high) tank and I wanted to have an idea how it looks proportionally. Thanks.

    This canopy is really a good design! But I think it will still work fine without the handles installed, might look even nicer without the handles. By the way, great job!

      @@CichlidBros I think it looks great with the handles on it
      I hope you left them on, I'd like to have 1 made for my 75 gal
      I guess you open the back part to clean the hob filters ?

      Didn’t have any issues for the year and a half that this tank was running. I upgraded to a larger tank so the 55 was shutdown

    Great video thanks so much for the info. Also I don't know who needs this, but I'd like to bless anyone since you've blessed me. Jesus christ loves you and gave his life on the cross so we could live and have a relationship with god. All we have to do is recognize our sins and ask for forgiveness and believe in jesus christ his son.

    Why do you answer/reply to everyone’s comments except the few that ask you for a supplies list? I guess you love reading praise but too lazy to actually help someone!

    • @CichlidBros
      @CichlidBros  3 года назад +1

      I explained in detail in the video and mentioned that my father in law built it, so I didn’t round up the supplies myself. I also can’t get to every comment, although I do try
