Tank top for nano

[Evanboi]

I’m thinking of getting a tank top for my nano tank (IM peninsula 14) which has a rather odd dimension. Any diy ideas or where I can find a suitable tank top/ mesh cover?

IM sells a kit to build a plastic screen top for their tanks? They also sell pre- built tops for most, maybe all, of their tanks. Check LFS that carry IM tanks.

Egg crate (Black) can be considered. Easily available in any LFS.

It can be break easily and secure with cable ties to fit odd dimension. It is cheap and doesnt block too much of lighting and air ventilation to be consider as alternative.

It may not look great though. Just my suggestion.

Thanks for the idea, i might just diy something . The IM screen top kit seems pretty expensive ..

I did this for my 2 footer. Bought acrylic meant for tank partition,  if not wrong. Then cut it to size. Place it on tank with cover clips holder. 

Best part.... cheap n serves its purpose well

Thanks I intend to do that . Currently I’m using egg crate but it seems to block out some of the light . May try cutting acrylic sheets and drilling holes instead. Bought some tank cover holder clips through taobao .

DD Jump Guards are quite nice as well. Rigid & neat. Not too expensive.

I'm aware that Madpetz or ReefmarketSG has them. You can facebook message them to confirm.

Other retailers probably carry them too but i'm not 100% sure.
