Call The Pet Place in Lancaster PA. They can have a new top frame mailed to you.

I got a top frame for a 75, and it was $8.

Just gotta add shipping costs.

Then pry it off, take off the silicon and then re-silicon the edges, and slide the new one on.
 
I have to empty my tank though I really dont want to have to do something thats going to take that amount of time I dont have a holding tank that I can just put my fish in :/
 
Then use the black Roofing and Shingle PL sealant.

I have a 50 where the bottom corner is broke off- I used that to actually make the frame.

I also have used this to seal tanks and such. It's safe, just be careful not to get it into the tank when it's wet.
