Replacment LIDS for Acrylic tanks

[R1_Ridah]

By chance anyone have any extra lids they have laying around. Preferably looking for lids that fit 3 TruVu Tanks.

40 Gallon x 2 lids
60 gallon x 2 lids
60 gallon x 2 lids

I know I can go to Home Depot and buy the acrylic sheet but the sheet they sell are too think and eventually bow.

So.Cal preferred willing to pick up within a 30 mile radius from zip 91344.

Thanks

J.... there's an acrylic place I go to that sell a thicker density type of acrylic that doesn't bow. I know what you mean by that stuff you get at H.Depot... this stuff comes in any thickness and lays flat.... makes awesome lids (the same stuff most tanks come with as lids)

bro go to lowes and get some glass to use. acrylic lids always bow even .5"

3/8 inch shouldn't bow. I got two made for 60 Clear for Life laying around. PM me with a price if interested. However, glass is a lot cheaper.

If you do go the plexiglass route, we ended up using thin strips of metal across the top to keep ours from bowing. Good luck!

All you need is to have it cut down to size.... I bought their "scrap" pieces and it fit my 60. If it's in there scrap bin, it's sold by the pound. I think it was $3.50 a lbs.
