Aquarium Top

Oops, yes.

That's the problem. The hinges. Can you buy them separately? This tank top is divided into 24 inch sections.

Another thing to remember us that if the biggest problem seems to be the glass, you danjyst buy the hinge by itself, I think it comes in 6 foot long pieces. and you just cut it to length by yourself.

That's probably the best solution. Where can I get a 6 ft. section?

For an example try https://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=13819

But check with your local fish store, they may well be able to order for you too.

A once piece 6ft section isn't going to set properly with a center brace on the tank.

Sorry for suggesting Drs F+S.

I never knew.

Might be able to get a discount if you order there though.

The main problem is the hinges. The chips in the glass are very minor and I can live with them. Thank you all. I think I'll replace the hinges. They just don't grip the g;ass any longer.
Thank you all for the help.

It will help the new hinges last longer if your light doesn't sit close to them. Light legs of a couple inches can help.

I'm not sure what the deal is with the Docs. I caught something online about Petco possibly eliminating them, but can't find it now. Site is up obviously, but trying to link to them doesn't work.

Petco are closing down Drs Foster and Smith, the warehouse is closing, bunches and bunches of people are out of work.
