The zilla good cover is specially designed for your daily usage and has all useful features. This screen cover works fairly well. It fits perfect on a 55 gal tank. It is for added security, use with zilla locking, non-locking or heavy duty screen clips. It does help that the lid is hinged, so you do not have to take off all those clips.
The Hinge is quiet and sturdy. The metal unit is tough and has no issues withstanding close contact with heat lamps. The cover fits snugly, slightly pinching the walls, providing a bit of a weak "clamp" so it stays. It's a lot more thicker and sturdier than the ones you get at pet stores.

Not everyone likes to purchase cover for their daily usage, but the zilla custom screen cover for aquarium would be an anomoly. Flat things crinkle, and this cage is a thin metal. It is better than the typical one piece screen cover that needs to be partially removed so you can feed or access your critters. Even though it is a screen, it still traps a lot of heat.
The cover will fit any tank that is close to 24 " x 12.25 " ( 65 cm x 35 cm ) no matter the height. It has a metal frame that will bend if man-handled. It does help that the lid is hinged, so you do not have to take off all those clips. The product is very nice, solid.
