ClearView Aquarium Lids Master Thread - It all started RIGHT HERE!!!

Hi Adam,

Could you please post the RSR450 CAD file (like you did in post #1281 for the RSR350), or direct me to a place where I can download it? (I'd like to draw out my exact modifications on it and submit it with my order.)

Thank you!

Hey folks,

just a brief review here. I ordered April 12th, and sent a couple of emails around early May I believe just to ask if there was a tentative timeline. Those went unanswered (which honestly didn't bother me at all), but they did reach out to me March 12th to confirm measurements and verify what the dimensions of my tank are. I ended up needing it to be about .5" longer than the average IM Nuvo 30 Black, and got two small cord slots cut in it. I shot back over a drawing with the accurate measurements, and on May 16th received shipping confirmation. I replied directly to the shipment notification asking if the changes to the drawing were made prior to cutting and shipment, and got an answer back within a couple of hours that they had.

It arrived yesterday flawless from shipping and the fit was perfect, just a tiny bit of wiggle room on each side. Upon measuring it came out exactly as I sent over to them. I know they get some flak for being difficult to contact, but I can vouch for the quality of the work. I really only couldn't reach them before they were ready to cut mine, once they had reached out to me I got replies within a couple of hours.

I am really impressed with how it turned out and assuming they are still doing lids I will reach back out to them when I inevitably upgrade.

@ArtFully Acrylic Do you have a standard size cutout for a lid cut out for a Sea-SWEEP (not swirl). I will follow up this post with an email.

** If not how would I measure that?

 

[NoWaiAma]

Trying to look into ordering one for my JBJ 28 AIO and the site isn’t letting me add cut outs to cart?

 

[powers2001]

How are these lids for taking off/removing from tank if there's a lot of cut-outs? Are they ever too tight?

They did one for me and it fits around two Sea Swirls perfectly. I sent them a measured drawing and the lid fits like a glove.

Good to know thanks. I messaged these guys like 2 months ago from their own site about a top. Never got a response. I choose not support businesses like this with my money. To me customer service comes first and clearly it is not a priority to them. Must be nice to have so much business you can straight ignore a potential customer.

 

[Swoody]

It is kind of disappointing to read about such poor customer service from a business that obviously pays to be a vendor sponsor or supporting vendor....or whatever it's called to drum up business and profits and (you would hope) they would support the community here and provide the same type of response as they expect when asking for your $$. I suppose that I will not even test the water here and just move on to a more recommended vendor. Thanks for the feedback guys (and gals).

@ArtFully Acrylic

I have emailed you repeatedly regarding my order without response. I have sent you a message through PayPal as well as your "[email protected]" as listed on your receipt. At this point your lack of response is disconcerting. PLEASE CANCEL MY ORDER. Order number AAIC7013

Thank you.

These guys make an awesome product. I have one of there lids. Love about an hour away from them. However was in the area about two weeks ago went to Stop buy and no store closed down and have no idea where they moved to if they even reopened. Sucks too cause they were good people with an awesome product.

 

[CDavmd]

Ok that’s really alarming. I paid them $300!

 

[NoWaiAma]

Ain’t that wonderful. PayPal or able to recoup?

 

[CDavmd]

PayPal sent them a message and ask that we try to resolve between us. So far no response. After a few days I can escalate with PayPal.

CRAZY!! I was very hesitant to do business with them but did, and was a hassle for sure. I did receive my lid in April and it's a nice product.

But their business practices were pretty hard to deal with. Good luck to whoever is waiting on them....

Well that stinks if they are out of business I have one and it is very nice.
Was going to have them make me a few more.
There are several other places making them and other R2R sponsors that are almost exactly the same.
