What an excellent topic to cover because some gadgets, plant holders, clamp-on items, water drippers, etc. are made for tanks without that moulding. Majorly appreciated Mike! I was contemplating removing a 4 inch piece in the back to be able use clamp-on items.

I just replaced a top and bottom last week. My tank was empty-which was a plus. Did it the same way you did, was pretty simple. Ordered from the same company you did, was happy with the price and customer service. Mine was a 40 tall.

Seems to be common the breaking of that plastic on top it happened to another YouTuber that I follow with the same tank. you look really healthy Michael very happy for you. Continued success.

You are definitely a trip but funny as he'll taadaaa 😆 🤣 love the video though glad your walking us thru it, , but I sure hope I don't ever have to do my 55 gallon as well. Since it's by my bed

Watching Man U, it's amazing you weren't asleep at the

Hi my handsome friend! 🤯 WOW. Mind blowing. I can’t even imagine. I would have 💩 my pants as well. Great video in how you fixed the problem. Looks a lot easier than resealing a tank which I’ve done a few times. Thank you for bringing us hobbyists informative videos of the hobby. Btw… looking healthy and happy.

I changed the top on a 55 like you did. I did it pretty much like you did except I kept trying to cut the silicone with a razor until I could take the whole thing off in one piece (minus the broken center brace). It took forever! I put the new one on and it lasted for years after that. It worked for me... so I did it right! It seems to have worked for you... so your (better) strategy.... also right! :)

[growclipbonsaiforseniors]

That was fast thinking making the brace. Great little tutorial on how you fixed the top with the new plastic. Thank you.

in 2020 I replaced a 55 trim and bought from them. I was very happy with the product.

I have a 125 gallon that broke the center brace so I used two lengths of wood and a pipe clamp to hold it from bowing. Thanks for the link I’ll have to order a new one. Although it has been like that for months

[audrameyer]

This was very helpful, thank you! Love the bloopers as always 🤣

The 20 gallon tank I'm taking the part for a fish tank project build. There's so much silicone on this 2005 tank it's ridiculous. Great video

[tomfasano]

Great job! Looks awesome! Can’t wait to see those new lids! Lol :)

last time I changed trim, I divorced her, tried out some different trim until I found some I really liked and married her.
I'm much happier now with the way the new trim fits !

Hey fish friend. Very informative video. Glad to see you in good health my nigga🤙🏽

I got 14, 55's with the broke center top, no worries they won't burst✌

Happened to me on a 55 gallon as well. Had just got home from having my heart valve replaced so as you know no lifting over 5 pounds or so. So I used it as an excuse to buy a bigger tank and had to pay someone to swap everything over. Pretty scary for the bit of time having a bowed 55 gallon tank.

I was hoping you’d turn around in time before the cat fell in 😂
