Has anyone purchased either an All-Glass Canopy or Oceanic Caps for their
aquariums? I am in the planning stages of purchasing a 75 gallon planted
tank. I have not been able to get any definitive specs in regards to the
specific inside layout of either of the two canopies I am leaning toward.
I'm thinking 4 Compact Flourescent 55watt retrofits should be able to fit
into a canopy that measures 48" by 18", even if there is a center wooden
brace of something. Any experience or feedback would be most appreciated.

From what I can see, I think you'd be fine. In fact, AGA has started
selling light strips with CF lamps in them, so you shouldn't even need
to retrofit. (unless you can save money that way). If you have the glass
Versa-Top over the tank, the light strip, and the canopy, I think you'll
be pleased.
