Here is my top lids
Artfully Acrylic on a Reef Savvy Euro-Braced... Patience is required, but very happy with what I got.
Yah probably but it works. Can’t even see it if your looking down at the tank! Lol though
I don’t have a Lambo by the way! Lol
Thanks. Wish I knew when it would be done. Just keeps getting knocked further and further down the priority list.When is that tank getting wet???? Top looks awesome. Also do you have the armored seams on yours?
As are most things that are individually hand made to order for each different application. Some are made with one or more access doors, cutouts of specific size and location. Lots of time just setting up for the cuts. Materials aren’t cheap and neither is labor, plus there needs to be some profit involved. I would be willing to bet that the profit margin on these is not that great. I think they all charge a fair price for the service and product provided.I completely agree. All of these are outrageous.
I am going to order lexan and DIY one.
Sorry, forgot to answer about the armored seams. I did not get them. There will never be a razor blade or other metal blade touch that glass, so not too worried about damaging the silicone. I found with my 140, if I just took a few seconds each morning and ran the magnet cleaner, I didn’t have to worry about scraping coraline off any longer.When is that tank getting wet????

Maybe with all the money they are making from these very expensive tops, they could invest into some R and D as to figure out how to bring the cost down. I would love to have one of these tops , but not at more than I paid for my tank.As are most things that are individually hand made to order for each different application.

As @Fin stated the tops are basically custom and there is a lot of set up time to make it fit with cut outs for lights, cords and auto feeders. This is not mass production as is the case with making tanks. For me, it is the finishing touch for a clean tank look and worth every penny I paid.Maybe with all the money they are making from these very expensive tops, they could invest into some R and D as to figure out how to bring the cost down.

Here is what it looks like in the back. Including cut out for Apex feeder.
