Hello,
Does anyone have any ideas on how to make or find clips that would fit on 3/4in glass for a screen top on a rimless tank? i can't find any online that fit 3/4in glass.

Thanks

You can ask a tank manufacturer for that.

If you can't find the clips, Artfully Acrylic makes the awesome Clearview Lids. Can be custom made to fit your tank and equipment. You won't need clips.

They are well worth the price (very high quality), but if you would prefer the DIY screen tops, I have seen people glue tabs made of plastic scrap on top of the screen frame to keep it suspended flush with the top of the tank.
