well, aqueon caries lots of hoods, you could get the plastic hood that has the built in light or a glass versi-top with a strip light, here's the link. you could also locate the store nearest you that can order the hood for you here's the link: http://www.aqueonproducts.com/products/ hope this helps! -fishlover78

Ok, I found this one but am confused; http://www.aquariumguys.com/glasscanopy5.html

How do you run any sort of filter with these kind of top?

the back is open. The glass doesn't cover the whole top of the tank. It looks like there is a plastic piece in the back that would help cover the open part in the back but you can probably remove or at least cut out the areas you need.

Our 46Gal tank has a glass top similar to that but without the plastic piece. The back has a space the length of the tank and about 2" wide which fit the PF TetraTec filter and anything else we have had to hang over the back.

It's 2 pieces of glass panels. The dark strip in the center is like a 'hinge' for opening and closing. The lighter strip is a soft,flexible rubber that can easily be cut out for filter,hoses,cords,etc.
