I've been searching for threads and haven;t found one on this particularly, so if someone does find one, if you can please direct me to it, I'd be very thankful :)

Anyways, my question is the following: I bought this 18 watt mini PC's for my 10 gallon, snice it ended up giving more watts and being cheaper! Unfortunately, it's also giving out a lot of heat! So I was wondering if anyone has ever built a small wood canopy that could support a fan and would be nice looking or if anybody has any plans, that would be great! I'm just not too sure how to tackle this kind of stuff for a small tank!

Thanks for any ideas!

ive built some canopies before its pretty easy. just go to a fish store and take a look at theirs and then copy them. all you need for a basic one is a hammer, nails and a saw, maybe a drill for the hinges. and a lot of people run computer fans on theirs check with the salt guys they run more lights than most freshwater.
