Hi everyone. I'm looking for some ideas to use as handles for my 2 glass tops on my tank. I don't want a handle to come off the glass when I pick it up. Right now I have a suction cup thing with a hook. The hook comes down to have the suction cup stick to the glass top. I would like to use the handles to pick up the glass but if I pick it up by the hooks the suction cups come off so I have to hold the suction cup only to lift the glass

Foster and Smith sells the little handles for glass tops.You can silicone them in place.
 
I used a rock siliconed in place of handle, you could use a shell, marble or pvc

I thought about using a cabinet handle but was afraid that the glue wouldn't stick the cabinet handle to the glass and the piece of glass would come crashing down. What type of glue would you recommend? I also thought about using double sided tape but don't know if the water would weaken it.


I glued cabinet handles to my glass tops, lol works great
