Definitely recommend the lids from octo aquatics. The only thing I would change is the feeding door which is too small.

I have used Kraken reef. After 2-3 years-still holds up pretty well. They have configurations of most of the major sold tanks and various lighting mounts etc all mapped out so pretty easy to order. They will get on the phone and walk through the ordering if you have questions. I believe fairly quick turn around 3 weeks?

What cut-out options did you get? I am considering the lights/cords with the two premium lid cut-out holes.

Can an automatic fish feeder sit on the polycarbonate?

I had 2 light mount, 2 cord cuts (each allows 2 cords), and two feeder holes. That I think you can just do one on the feeder holes.
I also had the cut out for the AFS. I am not sure you want the AFS sitting on the polycarbonate only that you would have to move it every time? But other than that -I think you have to ask them otherwise.

I also have a Kraken Reef cover from 2022. Just a feeding cutout for auto feeder. It’s on a Biocube 29 so the feeder sits next to tank on a tower of objects and dumps food thru cutout. Love it.
