DIY Lid

[SurfTrack]

Here is the DIY lid I just made for my 15g cube. I needed one ASAP because I just bought a goby and am not risking it jumping out. I'm really happy with it!

Supplies: Adjustable Window Screen Frame Kit from Lowes (literally $9 dollars)

Relatively customizable too. If I was more handy I’d make a feeding compartment.

I guess I’ll have to slightly move the lid when I have to feed. The horrors!

The lid is great and all, but the real diy gem here is that light mount!

Jk very clean lid. There are 3d printed feeding ports where you clamp then cut the hole with a razor blade. Here is an example with not great reviews. May be able to diy or find another vendor:

That light mount is a testament to my handiness! I’m just happy it stays hanging! Let’s just leave it at that

And that feeder hole is a good find. I’m going to order one now! Thanks!

Haha! Love it.

Do your research on the feeder hole. May be more quality options for similar cost.

Edit: order whatever you like. Just don’t buy the link I sent off my advice. I’ve never used one of those.
