34 gallon rimless DIY screen lid

[Trav7]

I have a 34 deep blue rimless tank. Was going to make a screen lid to do on it just to keep jumpers in. I have an overflow on left hand side that sticks up to the rim. Has anyone successfully went around this? Pictures would be great on how I wanna go at it. Please and thank you... picture below is what tank looks like.

If you are going to use the cheap aluminum framing, they make 90 degree corner pieces. But that would make a square shape and you'd have space for fish to jump out.

I think it's kinda goofy that the overflow sticks up above the rim. usually it sits a little lower.

Ya... it is a really strange set up... I think I am going to just go over top of it and not have it sit down in tank. Just hope doesn't look super tacky. Thank you for reply...

I'm making a lid for a deep blue soon and it will have a radius cutout for the overflow.

It fits very nice on tank. Have to get a couple more 90 to go around my light arm. But very happy with how looks. Now just waiting on screen to come in.
