CLEAR VS BLACK SCREEN
AESTHETICS OVER ALL
The biggest visual difference in your lid comes from the screen itself.
Clear Screen
Clear Screen lets through slightly more light PAR, yet glares more visually when viewing the tank.
Black Screen
Black Screen reduces glare down to near zero for a clean and unobstructd view from the top, yet ansorbs slightly more PAR.

SCREENED, NO CONDENSATION
Screened for full airflow through the feed door, leaving no condensation that needs to be constantly cleaned.
STAYS IN PLACE
Sits recessed inside the lid, to stay in place and not fall even when the lid is moved.

PROTECT WHEN REFILLING
If cleaning / refilling your auto feeder or don't have one yet, "Blank" Inserts fully cover the cutout.
EVAP COVER
KISS EVAPORATION, SPLASHING, AND WET CATS GOODBYE
Nobody likes constantly topping off the tank with new water, big fish splashing water around their room, or cats inside their tank. Solve all of these with an Evap Cover.
LESS MAINTENANCE, MORE STABILITY
Cut down evaporation by 60-75%, reducing water top offs by half and stabilizing your tank's chemistry.
NO MORE SPLASHING
Stop even the largest of splashers from making a mess of your stand, floor, back wall, or even ruining your lights.
CAT-BE-GONE
Your fish tank is not a litter box. Keep curious cats where they should be...out of your tank.
THE PERFECT MATCH
Best used with a Luxury Lid. Vents in the lid frame promote maximum airflow, normal oxygen and heat exchange, and greatly reduce the condensation on the bottom of the Evap Cover.
FOOD REGULATOR CUP
THE FROZEN FOOD SOLUTION
Take the time out of feeding your fish. Never defrost food yourself again. Feed any type of frozen, flake, or pellet food in 10 seconds or less, dispersing equally throughout your entire tank.
KEEP EVERY FISH PLUMP
Disperse food over time (2-4 minutes) to make sure even your smallest, most timid fish gets well fed.
TIME-OPTIMIZED FEEDING
Feed your tank in 30 seconds or less. Put the Regulator Cup in, throw some food in, and walk away.
AUTOMATED FEEDING HAVEN
Also available for Auto Feeders, slowly dispersing large pellet and flake food into your powerheads when you're away.
EASILY REMOVABLE
Fully removable for cleaning and to keep the sleek look of your tank.
FAQ
What materials are your lids made of?
What materials are your lids made of?
Our lid frames are made from polycarbonate, thick enough to thoroughly support the lid, but slim enough to keep away excessive condensation and salt creep. Our screens are individually made for us, with thin screen fibers that let through more PAR than other screens, and openings small enough for even the smallest fish to not wiggle through. These materials are water-resistant, easy to clean, and provide long-lasting protection for your aquarium.
