zoopkamol Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) Looking for some glass for a 4' 150gallon tank lid. Looking at getting glass cut for this. Where is the best/affordable place to get few pieces cut. 22 1/8" x 13 and 22 1/8 x5" as a flip opening.

jvision Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 AquaGiant is pretty good. Got all of mine made there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Percilus Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) If your just looking for a lid for a lids sake and wanted to save money check out what the king of diy on youtube does for a tank cover. Would cost you nothing on a tank that size compared to glass. If it's a planted tank you might have some issues with what he does though getting light through the canopy stuff. But hey it works for greenhouses. Maybe jvision knows more about that than me though for sure I was just looking for cheap tank cover ideas and saw what he does and it's by far the most affordable and practical alternative to expensive acrylic/glass lids. Especially on a huge tank. If I had Joey's tools I don't think I'd ever buy anything hardware related for fish/pets again haha.

zoopkamol Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Ya i looked at joeys vids and green house stuff might work ..only concern will be if my growing oscar can push lid off. Already jumps up when i feed him at least 2" above tank rim to get food. Worried might become a concrete flipflopper if lid not secured.

jvision Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 If I remember right, I got 1/2 my fishroom done for $120, including my 125 and 75 gal tanks and a couple smaller ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperGuppyGirl Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Did you provide the glass or did Aquagiant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percilus Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 That's actually very reasonable. Hopefully that big boy doesn't smash the glass with his head though haha, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
