I am starting to draw up plans to make a new hood for my 75g. What kind of wood have you all used? Should I hunt down marine grade lumber? Or use pressure treated? Or should I avoid using PT wood since it leaches chemicals into the tank? Thanks...
^^ What Chris said^^ , apply a couple coats of primer. you can even dilute the first coat to get a deep soak of the primer. top coat with another two coats of paint and caulk the seams prior to any of the above.
