Fluval 13.5 affordable clear lid

[fisherdonk]

Hello all,

due to having swapped out the light on fluval I'm now in the market for a lid.

The evaporation is noticeably higher with no lid, almost forcing me to buy an ATO.

I would like to got two birds with one stone and avoid future fish jumping, as well as lower evaporation rate and avoid having to buy an ATO.

I'm therefore looking for a cheap clear lid that will fit my tank. It should be solid and not netted. I would also like it if it didn't cost 60% of the tank price (Kraken).

Any recommendations?

Kraken is a good choice, but I hear you...

Sorry for reviving an old thread. But did you find a working solution?

I found this seller on Etsy that made me a beautiful clear polycarbonate lid I've been using for 10 months now . He even was able to add additional cutouts for the light I knew I'd be adding later after I gave him the measurements. It comes standard with 3d printed brackets to use the original evo light which was a huge bonus for me at the time.

I asked to leave off the filtration chamber cover since I wanted separated 3d printed pieces I could get more customization with
