I have the unit up and working, I do have a question though. What can I put in the end caps to make them more water resistant?

Use hot glue, it's easier to work with than silicone.

And eureka! Now time to figure out how to put the radions in between

 

[Acro]

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to put the radions in the hood, is there an online tech sheet that has drill marks that can be printed out on paper?

That's awesome! Thanks

And done. Only problem is I calculated the hood wrong and had to make temporary height changes with some extra wood laying around.

I have added a purple plus and a blue plus to the display. They will be on for 4 hours at midday. I've heard that people lower the whites on the LEDs, should I do the same?

Also, it's running at a 14k midday. Thanks for everyone's helps! I'm going to take some before pics tomorrow and retake after a month, I'm not going to change anything else but the lighting. Wish me luck!

Looks great Acro! I Mixed AI Sol Blues with 2 ATI 80W T5s in my 125g, My 180 g build is going to have 4 of them with the AIs. I love the look of them and think you're going to be happy
