[chuggy]

what size i have some

 

[Murphs205]

yes sir they are Larry , i have Gobies and a few other fish that will end up cat food or cooked in my canopy if i dont have covers on the tank .
i want to make some new ones for this 200 but i need them hinged so i can get in without too much trouble.

I need 3 1/4" thick clear Acrylic panels and the black plastic hinge for my tank , 23"x 22 1/4" openings . I know i have seen that hinge material before just can find it now.

You can buy hinge matrial from the LFS. 1/4" may be a problem. OLD Oceanic hinge was thicker than AGA hinge, but since AGA aquired Oceanic I don't know. Try contacting AGA customer service to see if it is the same or not.

I swear I seen them at lowes in e-town

I use the ceiling grid panels...they cut with wire cutters...keep the fish from floor surfing...light still gets thru.
