Finally got around to tightening up my spectra and fan cable management. Also cut down and drilled my led bar brackets so they hug the fixture. I also had to extend my MH/ T5 wires to get everything under the tank. While I was at it I got some 3/4 heat shrink to help hold the bundle of cables together and hold form so the fixture doesn't tilt back, worked great.
I'm still thinking of retro fitting the t5s with the LEDs but holding off for now. If I can find some paint to match, maybe some automotive wrinkle, for the bars itll stay as is just painted.
I'm getting some gnarly surface rust from placing a fan below without adding adequate ventilation on my skin doors. Trying to figure out a game plan for that one that doesnt involve breaking everything down
