Hi everyone, currently starting a new Cade frag 1200 build and looking for custom lid recommendations! The several suppliers I have identified have been top lids, kraken, Clearview, and octo aquatics. kraken is unfortunately already out as they will not make a 2 piece lid for this tank. Any other recommendations or thoughts on the other suppliers?
TIA!
 
You can do a DIY lid as well! (that's what I did for my tank)
 
Toplids did mine. It was pricey, but a quality custom job. If I had to do it again, I might go another way, but I can not deny the fit and quality provided by them. Well wroth the money if that is what you are looking for.
 
I'm in the same boat , I have a red sea diy on my larger tank which fits but I have had two fish still jump out. had a kraken on my nano for years without an issue however its pretty basic. Trying to see what makes the most sense now.
 
Leaning towards Clearview currently. Alot of poor reviews on toplids recently have me concerned. Unfortunate that kraken does not support multi piece tank lids wider than 26" but glad they are willing to admit a limitation that might lead to a less than stellar product
