Perfecto R01929 First Impressions

"It fits any 75 gallon."

My old hood was cracked and in desperate need of replacing. It would have been much easier to trim it prior to assembly. It fit the 55gallon tank without an issue. You do have to put the LED's in yourself but it is super super easy. With these glass pieces, I was able to use my large light bar. Don't know about their longevity though. It is flat and sleek, the led lights are fantastic.

Perfecto R01929 Final Thoughts

"This will help immensely!"

It was a hassle to open to feed the fish as well as to clean. Shipping was a little slow but hey it's free and it came intact! I went through many reviews before buying this lid. I would order this again in a heartbeat. The tape provided has a little tab that makes it easy to peel and stick. I'm wondering if I could just be sent the other plastic piece I'm missing. Additionally, the lighting with the original hood was terrible.

"Fit my tank perfectly."

Because it comes with the handles unattached so you can place them where you want. I almost thought they shipped me the wrong item haha. I got the package within a couple of days, much sooner than I expected. Nice that the seller called to ensure a good fit before shipping. It would have been much easier to trim it prior to assembly. I'm hopeful that I can trim the glass down with some emery cloth. However the first one came with one sides of the glass was broken.

"Its an interesting lid."

They provide extra handles just in case which is nice. The hood fits perfectly on my 55 gallon tank which has a divider in the middle. I mean it's the same brand and says it's for our size tank. I went through many reviews before buying this lid. I'm wondering if I could just be sent the other plastic piece I'm missing. NOW IN LATE APRIL, TWO OF THE THREE LED GROUPS ARE OUT. It doesn't have a recessed area to help avoid movement.

3. Perfecto Aquarium Glass Replacement Hinge: Small 1 8 quot x 30 quot

Perfecto PER01041 First Impressions

"No problems as of yet."

It fit the 55gallon tank without an issue. Even at petco that sold me the tank. I'm really happy with how this turned out. We have a pretty quiet household though, so nobody will be knocking it off. I have a Penn Plax 1200 filter on my 55 gallon tank. The lid is not heavy and the plastic is thin, but still does what it needs to do. People complaining about fit probably didn't pat attention to the description.

"Pleased with purchase!"

I absolutly love the product and the people. I highly recommend this product from THIS seller. MIGHT DO YOU GOOD TO CHOOSE ANOTHER BRAND. I am quite happy with the product otherwise. THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT LIGHTS AVAILABLE. I decided to introduce two Black Oscars into my tank. Yet another reason why I hate Top Fin.

Perfecto First Impressions

"Otherwise, thanks!"

Despite other reviews, this hood did fit my 55 gallon aquarium perfectly. I immediately went to putting it together, which sounds easier that it really is. Purchased this for my 29 gallon Tetra Open Glass Tank. Shipping was a little slow but hey it's free and it came intact! You have to assemble the LED lights to the hood yourself. I bought this tank hood and I have never been happier. The glass and the plastic hinge form a tight fit that is difficult to get together.

"Thanks a lot."

It looks sooooooo much nicer than the bulky old black top I had. I love it love it love it, and my fish are now happy! The company was super fast with their shipping and really great customer service. Def a good purchase if you are looking for a affordable 55 gallon glass lid. They provide extra handles just in case which is nice. WE are very happy with these glass covers. It was a hair too narrow across and way too deep.

"I love it!"

THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT LIGHTS AVAILABLE. Additionally, the lighting with the original hood was terrible. They fit my 75 gallon aqueon fish tank like a glove. When I would attempt to feed them, these monsters would JUMP out of the tank. EVEN DOWN TO THE TWO SIDED TAPE THAT HOLD THE HANDLES TO THE LIP TOP! It is bright, easy to use, and fits my 20 gallon aquarium perfect. You have to assemble the LED lights to the hood yourself.

"I'll never tell."

They murdered almost every fish in my tank. So far very pleased with my purchase. Bought one for a 10 gal Tetra aquarium. The lighting had failed in my 55 gal aquarium. Nice that the seller called to ensure a good fit before shipping. Just buy the correct ones and you'll be fine. Perfect fit for older aquarium's with thicker center piece and sides.

"The power cord is nice."

Had a small issue with the handles. I absolutly love the product and the people. The light provided is a lot better compared the the marine-land LED. The company was super fast with their shipping and really great customer service. It's a little difficult to put on but it does snatch into place. Don't know about their longevity though. I'm hopeful that I can trim the glass down with some emery cloth.

"Measure before you buy."

I thought of putting some hot silicone to prevent this, but never got to do it. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH QUALITY OF PRODUCT NOR WITH LACK OF REPLACEMENT LIGHTS. New handles work amazing as expected and my tank looks great. You do have to put the LED's in yourself but it is super super easy. So far very pleased with my purchase.

The knockouts aren't to difficult, I used needle nose pliers and snapped really easy. The hooks for the back were an added bonus. I'm hopeful that I can trim the glass down with some emery cloth. I like that there's a double opening and that the pop outs are easy to remove. You also have a second extender to make it bigger for bigger tanks.
