Tink tis gona side track abit but aso arcylic related so thgt other bros might nid their services.

I got them to laser cut a piece of 3mm gloss black sheet for my other tank. Did a 1-piece, including d top overflow grooves(comb) but told them not to cut d grooves all d way to d top, in order to strengthen d top portion.

Only managed to snake home & silicone it onto d glass today...lol

Ur tank top centre got 1 or 2 bracing ? The size of the bracing ?
