Great diy tank cover
The directions are a bit hard to read the way they are printed on the dark paper, but after figuring it out, it's pretty easy to do. This is a great idea for odd shaped aquarium and smaller ones as it is totally customizable for your tank. I used the side installation due to my tank not being as thick as needed, but it worked great. I also measured where the pump and heater cords would be and made small slots to fit the tube/ cord, and you can't even see them. Looks nice and blends in nicely with the tank without looking like i made it. Allows plenty of top lighting without having to worry admit my Beta taking a jump out of the tank. I have plenty of product left to make several more of I ever need to replace this one. Highly recommend.

Not worth it at all, spend the extra money on a good top
I bought this because at the time it was cheaper than buying a glass lid and I was on a budget. It was extremely hard to set up the instructions were unclear and in the form of a small piece of paper with small words that were hard for me to read. I was only given three corner pieces and the way the whole thing fit together was weird and came apart often. It looks okay but after about two months the adhesive on the magnets has already failed and now I have to spend the extra money on a new lid anyways. Even gorilla glue isn't enough to hold this pos together If you have an aquatic tank like me this is not for you. If you have a non-aquatic tank you might be able to make this work if you have time to sit and screw around with it for an hour just to put the lid itself together.

Pretty Good
Overall it’s pretty good. Definitely makes my tank look more polished and easier to manage when feeding. My only complaint is the first magnetic strip was slightly too short, leaving a bigger gap by my heater/filter. Still manageable by taping the netting down, but less sturdy. I have a 20 gallon long (12 1/2x 30 3/4in) so if your tank is bigger I’d suggest looking for a larger one. Other than that I was able to put together relatively simply. I preferred a tutorial on TikTok as the instructions were a bit confusing. FYI the corner pieces need to be slid on the top strip and can’t really be pushed into place. I’d suggest putting those on before the top strip(secures the net) is pushed on to the second strip. I’m pretty happy with this lid so far

Good Value
This was a gift for a friend. The price point was a good value, good quality, very durable and easy to assemble, and it's safe for the fishes and light works well and like that it has a timer. Highly recommend

Difficult
I’ll admit I’m not great at following good directions, but with bad instructions it took several hours. Once I figured out how it was supposed to work I understand the directions better but it was to late. Magnet’s could be stronger but fine for small fish. For the price it doesn’t look to bad and will do job.

Nice
I liked it but my snails won’t lay their eggs because it doesn’t produce enough humidity so I would get a standard lid

Very good!
The set up is simple, but it took me around 2 hours to put it together, so have patience (the product comes with a manual, it takes some figuring out). I made it work for my terrarium-that-is-now-a-fish-tank, which was tricky. The holes are big enough for food to get through but small enough that my Betta wouldn’t be able to jump out of the tank. Overall, I’m happy with the result. I only wish they had created a video showing how to put it together, it would have saved me some time.
