What size hood would a 45 gallon take? the frame is 36 x 12, divided in half, but i can't find anything 18 x 12, or 36 x 12, any ideas? Got my tank from Petco today, woohoo, hehe.
 
All-Glass and Perfecto both make 36" glass tops. Not sure if you're looking for glass, or plastic tops.
 
I ordered the twin tube glass cover from fosters, if the filter is to big,the lid may not stay open with the light there, there is 6 inches behind the hinge, and 3 inches in front,.........:)
 
Yeah, When I clean my 30gal with the 36" top, I have to either pull the glass forward a little bit, or tilt the light up in the back a bit to get the thing to stay open. Its not that big a deal though.
 
I have a aquaclear 50 to put on it, so it should be ok I'd think. I can't believe how much they charge for lighting, crazy stuff.
