I was just reading ur thread.... and was looking at the weight issue...

Actually, I am quite concern after u added ur hood because ur hood is resting on the tank and u are actually giving ur tank more weight pressure with hood...

That's why some people design full cabinet (bottom also)... with support on the back to the top or either the four corners are joined from the hood to the bottom of the cabinet...

juz my 2 cents worth...

thanks

think my hood's 15kg?

quite light i guess

but i'll llook out for my tank

thanks

I think the concern is more on pressure on the glass itself... :D but 15kg should be ok lah...

BTW, how deep is ur tank (height?)...

My tank is gonna be 5'x2'x2.5'... wonder how to reach to bottom of tank man!
