Locks for tanks?? Help....

[Laosy Fish]

Just wondering if any of you fellow hobbyist know of any type of lock mechinism for a tank lid.

My two toddlers decided it was a good idea to feed the fish and fed them every type of dry food (5.7oz of flake, dry krill, dry shrimp, etc) I "had" on the shelf.

Please help as I would hate to have to get rid of the fish or the kids...

Yeah its called Intimidation! Seriously though the only kind of locking lid I know of for tanks are the ones for reptiles but I think the tops are made differently than normal aquariums for the latch.

put a brick or something on it

there are ways to get locks on the tank, but is it really necessary? there has to be another way. maybe just keep the food out of the kids reach

brick would go through the glass....

my daughter is turning 3 and my son is 2. they can get into anywhere. We have a "dog" gate not a kids gate for them. It is 3' tall and they have figured out to take it down...

This is my growth thank with (2) 1-2" Jags and a clown pleco. any other ideas?
