Canopy weight???

I have an R&J canapy on my 60 gallon tank...I've realized that it seems pretty heavy, probably around 30 lbs...what do you think?

Should be fine. Rimmed tank, right?

Yes its rimmed but there are only 4 small contact points

Got a picture of it?

Looks good to me. Always had canopies on my tanks.

Only bummer is evaporation kills it, so you need a glass/acrylic top.

Should be fine. I'm sure I have WAY more weight on my tank from my canopy.

Way back from 2015:
