Picked
up the custom tops for my 40B aquariums today. Fits perfect. I bought
one like these over a year ago and I'll never buy commercial covers
again.
The cost $70 and change out the door for two. Almost as much as the $96 I paid for the aquariums.
The cheapest commercial top I could find was $36 plus tax and shipping.
UPDATE:
But here is the real benefit of using this style of cover. These have been in use for more than two years and I have never had to add a drop of top off water between water changes. Not even when I let them go for more than a month. There is almost no water evaporation.
