Amazon sells acrylic clips meant rimless tanks. Find a pre-cut glass top or have a piece cut. Sheets of polycarbonate can be bought at stores like Home Depot, Lowes, or Menards. You could cut out where you needed for equipment and feeding.

My tank came with a lid but I spent some time researching options just in case I found a tank without a top. Plus, I have a cat. My tank has to be cat proof.

I have clips ,
Lol I was at Home Depot yesterday and they wanted $65 for the size that I needed .
I didn’t want to spend that much if I have to do the work to cut and make it fit . I’ll do that if there’s no other options

thank you !!!

I wouldn't want to pay $65 and still have to do all the work either. For that price it would be worth it to see how much it would cost to get a piece of glass cut.

Just found this local place called makerlab
They quoted me $45 +tax for what I want done
Here’s pics in case anyone was interested to see what I created in my mind
