I'm trying to figure out a nice way to lift the top of my canopy and keep it up while I feed my fish or do maintenance. I currently use a PVC pipe to prop the canopy up as needed but it's not the best method. I would like to see some of the solutions that you all are using in this scenario. Here is a picture of what I do to keep it propped


 
If you google "cabinet lid support" you will find many options...some of which you could buy locally at HD or Lowes. Here is but one example of hundreds of choices:
