Anyone got any idea where you can get cheap fish tank hoods from? I'm after a 30" x 12" with light fitting facilities but cheapest I can find is £50

fishkeeping forums, I am an aquarium nutcase, well a nutcase in general, but fish forums are the best place to go to get a used one, if you can find a match, cheaper too. Easier on the legs searching as well is that internet searching.
Also, for hood and lights 50 is fairly cheap if it is new and includes lamps

I got the tank second hand from the mrs' (not married) sister. It has no markings and the lid is missing (obviously).
It's 30" x 12" with no lips for lids to rest on so needs to be a overlapping hood.

What you brought there my friend, is just a glass tank. Have you ever upset the sister as I think she's just swindled you
£50 aint bad for the lid and lights. You'll pay more for a new tank and lights dumb ass
My last set of 2 foot lights and lighting unit was over £100, stop bitching#cheapskate
if it's cheaper cut perspex and make a lid, any auld **** light can go on top if it's for freaking goldfish
Do you have a water filter and heater?

I like cheap, only thing better is free
I know £50 isn't bad now I've looked around, just surprised at how much they cost when I started looking. **** paying £50 though, I'll make a wooden one

Yeah, got everything else. I have tropical fish, had them for about three years now. My original tank bust about six months ago and I've had this one since as a temporary solution. Since I'm not going to get a bigger tank for less than £300 (
) I though I'd try and get a lid.I've actually got spare filter and heater because the ones I had for the old tank weren't big enough.

I burned through 6k in 5 months starting up this hobby
She went to Finland for a few days when we were in Ireland when when she got home there was a 6 foot 600 liter tank in the living room, I have to get it in before she could object
