looking for diy plan

[wenszoo]

I am looking for a DIY plan for a canopy for a 75 gallon oceanic rr tank. can anybody HELP please?

Your best bet is to go to the LFS and look at how the standard AGA ones are built... take a camera, pen and paper and a tape measure if needed. Then after you figure it out you can make me one too

Here's the canopy I just built. I used 3/4 inch plywood for the whole thing. I made it so the ends are the exact width of the tank, and attached trim to come down the sides and front. I cut the top across the front and attached the piece I cut off to the front lid piece. That way the whole front opens up and it props itself up when open.

Lol, typical Arizona subdivision back yard. Plain and small with a drab block wall!

Looks like your yard is easy to mow. Just one small patch there to take care of.

I just pulled that weed two months ago, and it's already time to do it again!
