Anyone with a spare 36"x12" canopy FS?

At least 6" tall to accomodate DIY lights. Any color will do, preferably black or dark-stained wood. PM me if available, or post a pic.

Thanks,
Tom

I can spare a handful. PM me and let me know when you'd be available. I live right in Buffalo and work at UB South Campus, so whichever is more convenient.

That's some nice math. Unfortunately you (and I) were referring earlier to a nanocube, not a "nano reef system" or a nano-ocean. But I've already digressed enough.

Thanks for the advice. The reasons I went with the T5s over MH are:

1) lower start-up costs

Will it be worthwhile ($200 for the T5s)? Do you...
