This is a really informative thread for sure. Got a 20Hex I need a glass lid for and I think I may give making one myself a try. Thinking sticky here.

HAHA omg, this is amazing! All his stuff is found in Home Depot...the glass is 3/32" thick and really cheap, the glass cutting kit is $14 and very easy to use. Got all that stuff too so I could section off my 30g sump.

10/10 CHOMPERS!

No, the glass does not need to be tempered. Just make sure you ease the edges of the glass to prevent sharp edges before using them.
