Hood Cover
Posted on Tuesday, March 29, 2011 in Photography
Is it feasible to make an aquarium cover?
I have a 55 gallon aquarium that that was made in japan or somewhere. A friend of my mom's gave it to us and it doesn't have a cover/hood/canopy thing. Is there anyway I could make a cover? I wasn't sure how or what kind of wood or what sort of lacquer.
I think what you're looking to make is what's termed a "canopy" - something which covers the entire top and hides your lighting. Yes, it's possible to do this - I have!
Here's a website which shows 4 designs (for both canopy and matching stand) in links at the bottom of the page - you may just have to adjust the size to fit your tank: http://www.aquaristsonline.com/blog/aquarium-diy/the-diy-aquarium-stand-some-resources-to-help-you/
I prefer solid wood (pine) over plywood or particleboard construction, since either of these last two can have the glue separate if it becomes wet.
