Question Canopy for 72 gal All-Glass bowfront

I'm looking for a canopy for my 72 bowfront made by All-Glass. Unfortunately, All-Glass does not make a canopy for their bowfront tanks. I've heard that Oceanic and All-Glass are basically one in the same. However, comparing the specifications it seems that the Oceanic tanks are 1 inch larger in length and width than my tank. Can anyone confirm the dimensions on an Oceanic 72 bowfront? Has anyone found a manufacturer for canopies for bowfront tanks? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi... I've just got a 72gal all-glass bow front aquarium and got one of there standard glass canopies with it.. so I don't know what you mean when you say they don't make one. They are available. Maybe it's your LFS that isn't giving you all the info. At any rate. I'd actually have rather got a custom built 2mm acrylic canopy from a local industrial plastics shop... that also would have been cheaper, and better. but if you want glass.. contact all-glass...

I have the Oceanic 90G bowfront with canopy. The tank is great but the canopy is a piece of junk. I would not recommend it!

One Word....

Google...

Most are a little pricey though.... but if you wanted to go cheap you would have a fresh water tank.
