    DIY Canopy

    I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for some blueprints for a canopy. Not looking for anything to fancy but something simple. My tank dimensions are 3ft.x2ft. Even if you know of some plans for a different size I can just change the dimensions to fit my needs. Thanks
