Where to buy canopy

[radiolunatic]

I have 180 gallon standard Tru-Vu and I would like to get a canopy. I am planning to use Luminarc, so it has to be a little bit taller than usual.
Any advise where I can purchase or make a canopy? Early this year I was advised of a company in Fremont, which I forgot the name.
LMK if you have suggestion. I do not need it fancy, just a simple nice canopy is good.

You could build one. It's not to hard. 1/2 inch marine plywood. Some i" x 1" to make rails. Check out http://saltaquarium.about.com/od/diystandscabinets/

Good luck.

see if you can find a cabinet shop that will let you use scrap wood for cheap and maybe make it for you after hours or something

Building one will be cheaper - IMO

Hhhhmmm, I am far away from being a handyman. I do not have tools too. Plus with 4 years old and 1 year old that I need to take care, it will be hard for me to build something.

Hey Radiolunatic,

I believe there is someone local called Angelo's Custom Woodworking, but I think you need to go through an LFS to order from them.

Also you may check with Socal Creations, they are down south but they do ship and do nice work custom work as well and shipping is reasonable.
