    Well, I installed the hardware.... still yet to polyurethane but I will do that in a few weeks. I am in much less of a hurry now. Here is where it is.

    To answer your question about heat Anthony, it does get a little warm.... It took my tank up 2 degrees in temp but for me that is good. Either that or it helps hold the heat from the heaters in the tank better. I had a hard time getting to 86 degrees with 2 heaters (why I had 3) but I am only on 2 now holding my 86 mark!
