Efficient mounting option found to keep sanity

Ok, all said and done this is a really good frame and should last forever. I almost rubbed my fingers trying to snap that slot. I found that the slot is actually for insertion, but that doesn't help at all when installing the screen. For assembly I found the following useful (see video and photos for details). Important: I bought the 48x24 version. . I started building on the 24" side. You might find it useful to do something like this. 1. Align the screen nodes in the railing so they don'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Extra thick lightweight aluminum | Broken corners allow for line handling
Cons
  • Damaged

*READ BEFORE BUYING*

The instructions for this product along with this easy step by step DIY approach is an absolute joke. Not only was the idea of cutting metal with a hacksaw not effective, but installing wedges was insane unless you had some Herculean strength and extra hands. It took over an hour just to cut these aluminum bars because the hacksaw won't work if you can't attach it to something or if someone doesn't help you. But 2 teeth have to be very thin so I had to use a jigsaw. After that add the cornerโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Carefully measure length of rails and trim to fit | Cutting tool not included
Cons
  • New competitors appeared

A piece of junk!

This cover is terrible! The sides in my set did not have a lip as shown in the pictures so they could be set flush with the top of the tank. Instead, you'll have to buy clamps to hold it in place and trim it to fit the top, or let it rest on the tank. Also, the screen is not at all like the pictures. It looks more like 1/8" mesh than 1/4" as stated in the description. It's also very thick, so it blocks a lot of light and barely fits the max width. It is also almost impossible to collect. Theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Prevent farm animals from leaving the aquarium | Molded "sponge" rails allow the screen to sit neatly on the inside rim of your aquarium
Cons
