Aquarium Hood: How to Cover Without Ordering a Replacement

How do I cover my aquarium hood completely with having to pay for a replacement? I am considering some stocking options that would need a completely covered aquarium. It kind of looks like this.

 

You can cut a piece of cardboard to fit and get a local glass or mirror shop to cut you a piece of glass. That's what I have on my tanks.

 

How would you attach the glass?

 

Mine sit on top. My whole lid on my 4 footers are just 4 peices of glass with a handle hot glued on the front 2.

 

How would you attach the glass?

You can purchase "fish tank clips" specifically for fish tanks (any tank really) from several places including the well-known online retailer giant.

 

Thank you! This is great to know! I will try and get some glass whenever possible, as I’ve got time before I decide to get any additional critters for my 20 hex.

 

Cut yourself a piece of lexan or plexiglass.

Lowes cuts it for you. And their still open during these trying times.

 

Yup plexiglass

 

I was looking at my aquarium and the open part seems like it would need two pieces of glass or something flexible if I was trying to get everything covered, how would I fit something?
