Weird size tank... current top is multiple pieces (15+ years old...) and has crappy single tube lighting. No where near enough for plants and such.
I'd like a new hood/top - but due to the weird size, it isn't really available easily/cheaply.
Thinking I can take a piece of plywood, cut to fit, cut notches for filter, cut out a pair of squares to use 2 old 10gal tank hoods, treat appropriately (killz or some other primer?), and be good to go.
Yes? No?
If yes, what primer or paint is recommended? Obviously moisture exposure is a concern...
