ZILLA Reptile Fresh Air Screen Cover with Hinged Door, 30-1/4 by 12-7/8-Inch, Black

Using this for my 20 gallon tank because my leopard gecko is an escape artist. The mesh is very sturdy, it can handle the weight of my light no problem. Compared to this, exo terra covers look flimsy.It was a little bit of a tight fit - my tank is about 30 1/2 long because it’s a zoomed tank - the old top used to slide in, so the sides are a little longer. However, the metal sides of this cover are a bit flexible, I could bend them a little bit to make room for that 1/4 of an inch. It is very snug, I would recommend to measure your tank, if it is more than 30 1/2 inches long, this won’t fit.The good quality and the fact it has a door for easy access justify the price to me.

We started using a 20 gallon aquarium for our hamster after she kept chewing on her wire cage. She chewed through the first (thin wire) lid we had on it and got out. This lid being a much thicker mesh, we haven’t had that problem. Hamster problem solved!

It fit perfectly !

The price was fair but the item arrived a bit bent- it doesn’t sit quite flush with my tank. I bought it to keep my younger kids hands out of the hamsters tank and to stop any escape attempts (it’s a cute natural set up and they kept moving his flowers and things lol) and it definitely works for that once I secured it to the tank a bit better. The little door and it’s cute nob are great for restricting access and encouraging them not to touch without asking and so far a one Mr.Hams E. Benedict, has not launched a successful escape plan…..

Measurements were perfect.
