This canopy was constructed from 1/8" ABS plastic sheet, which was textured
on one side.
Cuts were made with a utility knife, and/or sheetmetal tools.
Adhesive used was Loctite Quicktite superglue.
The reflector for the short term is simply aluminum tape, with the
intent of making a specular reflector.
I cut the rear of the OEM canopy off, but kept the front "bow" portion
intact, for the time being they are loose on the top.

Dual 32w lamps installed
All ventilation is through the back of the canopy, with air forced
in with 2 1.5" DC fans

the HOB filter to stick into the tank.
Between the rows of vent holes is a piece of window glass, to reduce
evaporation
