    LOL yes Red Deer is a City in the Province of Alberta here is Canada.
    It's about half way between Calgary and Edmonton

    There was a new member near Red Deer recently, looking to get into the hobby.

    I'm thinking about making a hanging frame for my LED's like the one you have out of 80/20 structural aluminum. With your light setup, does the light shine you in the eyes if you sit close to the tank?

    I'm going to have to make a short hood/light shield. The spill isn't too bad but I have not determined my final light height.

    Following along too!

    AI lights alway seem to control light spill.. I'm assuming this is due to the use of lenses?

    I certainly suck at updating this build. I've been travelling a lot for work so the build has been slow. But this week end the wait was over and all the fish where moved into the 220G.
