anyone have a good design for a minimalist style hood for 75gal? I have an old style oceanic stand and can't find a match to teh hood and do not want to re-skin it to match a big hood. i should be able to house a coralife 48" and 2 96W quads

Ace does outstanding work and is super reasonable on the price.

got pics? I usually build my own but torn about investing alot of time in this hood and tank. I am dwelling in an apartment for the first time ever. I have a few ideas i am toying with but looking for suggestions. I know the tank will be replaced in 3-12 months for something larger when i move to Dallas.
