Tank lid

[sergifed91]

I have been using egg crate as lids. Looking for other ideas. I'm not looking to build a canopy for it. Thinking screens or etc... Pics to please.

Red Sea's diy lid works for pretty much any tank.

Depends on what you want to spend and how big your tank is. I have an innovative marine diy mesh lid on my nano, looks great and easy to cut and assemble. I had a red sea diy but had cut out notches to go around radion rms arms. Made stretching the screen an absolute pain. Ended up ordering a custom mesh top from reefin ain’t eazy, it is absolutely phenomenal! It is 2 pieces of clear acrylic so it is easy to remove and clean and has a removable feeding port cover.

Lots of people use cheap window screen frame kits from Lowes / Home Depot with clear mesh (instead of screen in kit) that you can buy from Amazon, BRS, etc.

Couldn't find a good pic but this gives an idea -- I have an acrylic strip behind the mesh frame that I cut to go around my 2 HOBs (((and I've seen people do the same for back equipment with egg crate as opposed to acrylic))):

In the process of making my own. Got a sheet of acrylic from Lowe’s. Started tracing and cutting then sanding
