hood

I have a 45 gallon tank and I am looking to replace the lid for it. I want a glass lid as I just bought a nice light that I can't use with a black lid. The lid dimensions would be 36" L x 12" W. I cannot find anyone selling what I need so I was thinking about making my own or doing it lidless...

Hi all I've not been on here for years. Started fishkeeping about 15 years ago and this site was invaluable when I was starting up. I've stripped down a tank and currently cleaning it ready for a new scape. As part of this, I'm going to build a whole new hood. I need the whole set up to be...

I want to swap my internal filter and heater for a DIY all in hood set up. I want to put stick insects above the tank to. My tank is under the roof line but I think my design will work, aesthetically. Do you think I'll be able to put the heater and filter material in the pyramid above the tank...

I’m having no luck finding a 55 gallon hood. Does anyone know of sites that have any kind of 55 gal hood or does anyone have diy suggestions??? Thank you

Hello everyone one! I have been an aquarium hobbiest for over 20 years. I have a biocube 29g that I have modified the filter with popular intank kits. Now I want to get into the latest fad of LEDs. I have always had a freshwater unplanted tank but I want it to look really nice because I spend a...

Hello Everyone,  I had a question regarding running the hoses for my Fluval 406 Cannister into a 55 gal tank (48x13) through the hoods. The tank has two similar hoods with perforated cut outs along the back of each for a Penguin 350 (I am using the cannister in the place of the Penguin 350). ...

Here is the location where my new adventure starts.  

A while ago i tried my hand at glass cutting and tried to make a 9 gallon aquarium. the result was a 3 gallon cube aquarium at 9" by 9" by 9". I wanted to do as much of this tank as possible by myself and without buying anything. I reused an old heater suitable for 1-5 gallon tanks and make...
