So, my salt water tank technically was a thick glass vivarium tank. So it does not have a cross brace on it. The only complication I ran into is tank lid. Its 36x18, which I can find glass lids, but they are always two parts. I have tried making a brace out of plastic from home depot. That bowed and popped from the weight of the glass lid. Then when I built my sump and had scrap glass, I cut a nice glass brace. It worked perfect for about a week until I slipped with the lid closing it and it shatter the brace. Any suggestions? I just really want the lid to work to reduce evaporation rate.
I thought about maybe using aryclic. My main concern if double layer glass broke I will run into same issue of it breaking.
