Nano lid.. Anyone know where to get one?

I started looking for a glass lid and have not been able to find one for the 2.5 so far.

Any hints before I just cut some plexi to fit?

Hint: cut glass, plexi bends under heat.

I will probably cut glass anyways as the plexi will yellow under the lights regardless BUT with the legs on, there should be nowhere near enough heat to droop the plexi.

I don't know why I bother. Go ahead and do it, Jeff, you know everything.

LOL!
You guys are just harsh on poor ol' Jeff!

FYI: Plexi will EVENTUALLY droop at room temperature.

I went back and looked again at the plexi that I had on the 55 for awhile, it has yellowed some but it is bowed.

Whether that was heat or size I dont know, either way Dave is right with that.

They dont pick on me for anything that I dont bring on myself by constantly tinkering and not accepting what works. I bring that on myself.

Aquarium Depot usually has lids. Petsmart sells the tank with the lid, if you need an extra tank.
