Where can I get a screen cover for my 72 gallon bow front aquarium?

Apr 30, 2007 by Sky2sea | Posted in Reptiles

I have a 72 gallon aquarium and I want to convert it to a reptile tank. The problem I am having is trying to find a screen that will work with a bow front tank. I am new to the whole reptile thing and I am not sure where to start looking, although I have done several searches online and have not found anything.
Thanks!

Hello, you can try making one using wood or plexiglass..the lid only needs to be part screen... or check with a window / glass store or a plexiglass place, they maybe able to make one as well..am not sure what kind of reptiles your are going to use ..but snakes require securely locked doors or lids, they are quite the escape artist otherwise & with aquariums you have to be careful they don't get soggy wet..all reptiles need some humidty..especially when shedding..thru water dishes & evaporations &/or daily mistings..am also going to include you a really good reptile site ( east bay vivarium) the other 2 are plastic sites ) which might be able to help you with a custom top & what reptile is suitable for your tank as well, they are reptile experts & ship things..etc..Take Care :)

46Gallon bow front mini reef including: 2 toadstool leathers, 1 green frogspawn, many asst. mushrooms, button polyps, star polyps, trumpet coral, tree corals, one baby cup coral, yellow polyps, many asst. zoanthids, 50 pounds fiji, bali, and vanuatu live rock. Fish: yellow mimic tang, purple firefish, 2 zebra bar gobies (my favorites!), one scooter dragonet, one green "target" mandarin, 3 yellow tail chromis, 1 engineer goby, 1 banded serpant starfish, asst. hermit crabs and snails oh and 2 freshwater mollies that are soon to be removed. 2 AquaClear 50's -one containing just a sponge, and elite chemi pure (love this stuff!) and the other containing small rubble pieces of live rock. i have 2 powerheads, one on each side. all i have for lighting (for now!) is a twin tube fluor. fixture with one actinic white bulb and one actinic blue. everything is thriving thus far. let me start off my saying as i'm sure most of you are, i am OBSESSED with my aquarium. i watch it much more than my television. its 46 gallons, reef and fish. i have 2 96-watt compact fluorescent bulbs over it, (although i really wants some T-5's). I keep 2 hang on the back power filters on it, mostly because i do plan to go bigger, and i'm not building a sump for this tank. they do the job well as long as i keep up with cleaning the filter and partial water changes every 2 weeks (common sense). 46gallon bow front mini reef including: 2 toadstool leathers, 1 green frogspawn, many asst. mushrooms, button polyps, star polyps, trumpet coral, tree corals, one baby cup coral, yellow polyps, many asst. zoanthids, 50 pounds fiji, bali, and vanuatu live rock.
