First DIY: Tank Cover

[Gujustud]

I made some small modifications to the cover:

First I removed the small lips from the side slots where the cables were coming out of. Before I had to fish the cables for the powerhead thru the slot, and then if I wanted to remove the cover, I'd have to refish it thru again, which was lame.

You'll also notice I added a extra slot for the heater. At first I didn't put one in, because I didn't think the heater came up so high, but when I got home, it did, so I needed to make the extra hole for it to stick out of.

The next thing I did was remove the lip from the hole I made for my future HOT fuge. I did this for 2 reasons, space, and also you'll notice in the first pic, that it did crack when I initially made it, because it was too thin.
