Product Questions

Hi,

I am looking to buy this product for my turtle tank, which has multiple lights, including a heat lamp, that rest directly on the lid. Would the netting be able to hold the lamps safely in terms of both, strength and heat tolerance?
Question by: Abby Sharrer on Mar 22, 2025, 8:17 AM
We would not recommend placing any heat light overtop this screen kit.
Answer by: JJ K (BRS Staff) on Apr 6, 2025, 4:06 PM
What size tank cover do I need for my Red Sea G2 Max Nano XL
Question by: John England on Sep 11, 2024, 6:01 PM
For the Max Nano XL you would want the R42080 24" x 24" kit
Answer by: Laura (BRS Staff) on Oct 24, 2024, 1:46 PM
What size screen do you use for S-1000 G2+?
Question by: Barrett Bruchhauser on Nov 18, 2023, 1:21 PM
Hey there,
Thank you for reaching out to us. By the dimensions listed a screen size of at least 83"W x 27"L. You might have to look and make two smaller screens to cover the entire tank. Thus making it easier to operate. Either way it will be a custom set up. Please let me know if you need anything further.
Answer by: Thomas Wofle (BRS Staff) on Jan 18, 2024, 11:05 AM
There is not a screen for that size tank, you would have to use a combination of two of the 48 inch kits.
Answer by: Laura (BRS Staff) on Feb 6, 2024, 9:41 AM
What size do I need for the 26 gallon?
Question by: Austin Aber on Jan 30, 2023, 7:59 PM
Thanks for the question! R42080 you will need this one
Answer by: James Johnson (BRS Staff) on Feb 16, 2023, 11:55 AM
Which one do I need for my RedSea MAX S 650 tank?
Question by: Robertito on Apr 11, 2022, 7:29 PM
Thanks for the question! You'll want to get the 60"x31" screen kit for the MAX S 650. Let us know if we can answer any additional questions!
Answer by: Kyle Thomas (BRS Staff) on Apr 13, 2022, 9:43 AM
Would this screen be able to keep in an eel?
Question by: John Michael on Mar 26, 2022, 4:56 PM
Hey there,
Thank you for reaching out to us. This screen top is not recommended for an Eel.

Please let me know if you need anything further and take care!
Answer by: Matt Lucero (BRS Staff) on Mar 29, 2022, 10:12 AM
do you think one of these screen tops could be fashioned to a 36 gallon top fin bow front ?? even if it had to be 2 pieces ??
Question by: Ralph Derleth on Feb 2, 2022, 3:35 PM
I do not think it would fit well, unless you are able to successfully heat and bend the metal frame. Which I have seen done on You Tube.
Answer by: Matt Lucero (BRS Staff) on Feb 3, 2022, 9:47 AM
Hey guys just curious what kit I would need to buy I have a 65 gallon rimmed tank with a center brace. Just curious if I need to buy two kits the tank is 36" long an 18" wide. Thank you
Question by: Tim on May 1, 2020, 1:24 PM
Hi Tim,

You can either buy the 4 ft kit which will make 2 screen tops up to 2' x 2' or you can buy the 3 foot kit and 4 extra corners and a 3 ft rail.

I hope this helps!
Happy reefing
Answer by: Nick on May 12, 2020, 4:31 PM
what set up would I need for a 72 by 18 split in the middle 125 gallon tank
Question by: mike haines on Feb 5, 2019, 4:03 AM
Hey there!

For tanks with a center brace like yours, you would likely need to build two kits for each half of the tank. The R42081 36" X 24" CUSTOMIZABLE DIY AQUARIUM NET COVER would be needed for each half. :)
Answer by: Randy on Feb 5, 2019, 11:16 AM
Will the light mount cut outs on the 36 by 24 screen top allow enough room needed to use the ecotech rms mounts?
Question by: Jordan on Jan 3, 2019, 11:11 PM
Thanks for contacting BRS!
In order to go around the RMS brackets, we recommend these universal cutouts as the RMS bracket would be too large for the regular cutouts. Have a great day!

Answer by: Noah on Jan 10, 2019, 5:05 PM
Do these come precut for the Red Sea tanks? IE for the overflow etc.
Question by: Douglas Lee on Mar 22, 2018, 3:56 PM
You'll need to cut the frame to customize it to your tank. You can view this video for more information - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLNQsKHyUD0.
