So I scored what I believe is a 30 gallon hex tank for $10 for a friend. But it needs a light, filter and lid. I am considering making one out of glass myself with a hinge. But want to compare prices and quality to get the best route. She has an 18lbs cat who sits on top of the tanks so quality is important.
The tank is 18.5" across, 22" deep and a panel measures 10" long. I plugged it in to an aquarium volume calculator and it said 28.57 gallons. I'm having a hard time finding a lid in that description. If anyone knows where to look that would be appreciated.
If I make it myself I'm thinking acrylic or glass. Probably glass to resist cat claws scratching it. What thickness would you suggest?
