Hello.
I am going to be building a canopy for my rimless tank. My tank which is a 115 gl tank has no upper black rim. What I am wondering is can I setup a canopy directly on top of the glass tank or will I need to suspend it just about the glass? I wasn’t sure if it is ok to put the weight of a canopy directly into the tank. I would suppose it would help it from bowing to some extent. Anyway, any advice is appreciated . The tank is 5’ so I estimate my canopy will weigh about 60lbs with the light fixture .
Thanks!
