I wanna buy a long 20 gallon tank.It measures 30x1/4 long and 12x1/2 deep. The hood on Amazon says 30 and 12 which means my tank is a 1/4 inch too long and a 1/2 inch too wide. My question is would the hood fit or is it exactly 30x12 and not big enough? Thanks for any help!! I wanna buy a long 20 gallon tank.It measures 30x1/4 long and 12x1/2 deep.

Yes it does fit. I have a 29 gallon tank with same measurements. Fits perfectly. The "night" lights on this hood looks so cool also. Hope this helps you.

The hood sits on the inside edge of the tank. It will fit, it's a standard size. I ordered one for my 10 Gallon tank, the hood is not bright at all. in fact I had a hard time seeing my fish. It's somewhat bright just in the middle, that's where the LED lights are, you can just see shadows near the ends of the tank. I returned the hood, it's just not bright enough. I hope this helps your decision to purchase this hood.

I think you by mistake write 20 gallon instead of 29 gallon. I also have a 29 gallon aquarium and the hood fits perfectly on it if you check the aquarium closely then you will find that there is a little hinge on the aquarium and the hood sits on it. the exact size of the hood is (29.2 inches and 11.6 inches) I know that it is little confusing even when I want to buy it I was also confuse however i ordered it and I am happy now. led light is pretty cool with three option white, blue and none. light is really bright and i will not recommend it to see directly towards.I hope this helps you

It fits perfectly into the upper ridge of my 10-gallon standard tank, and it definitely doesn't fit our 20 long. 20 long is a fairly standard size, though. I would filter for Marineland, and look for one specifically for a 20 long.

I'm not positive it will fit because my hood is 24x12. My aquarium has a narrow inner rim and measures 12x24. The hood fits fine. The night lite is cool but turn out the lites before lifting hood, they're bright! I really like the hood.

It will fit 24" long tank or longer. But light just has 17.75" long, I don't suggest you to use it for your tank. I use it for my 20 gal plant tank so it protect fit. I mean light is bright enough to keep my plant to grow. If you use it for plant tank, the one 24" to 36" will be better to you.

Some of these answers are wrong. This DOES NOT fit 20 inch, ten gallon aquariums. It is a 16 inch hood.

It should fit most standard 10 gal tanks. Did you measure the where the lid will rest? Check that but it is a true 20x10" fit.

I have a 10 Gallon tank, the groove around the top where the tank sits in, measures, 19 3/8" x 9 1/2. I tried this hood for a few days, then returned it, it is very dim, you can barely see your fish, with the white LEDS on. The night time look is nice but I like to actually see my fish. I don't know what gallon tank you have but if that's the inside measurement (groove around the top) the hood would be too small anyway. I hope this helps.

The 24 x 12 will fit a regular 20 gallon tank. If you have the 20 gallon long tank you will need the 30x 12. Just take a quick measurement across the top of your tank.

For anyone else looking at this hood for Petco's 40G breeder tank, it's just about 1/8" too wide. I'm debating whether to return it or see if I can somehow shave down the ends. It also arrived with the glass cracked, but since this is for hermit crabs, I would be removing the glass to use with a UVB bulb anyway.

I have a 20g hex tank and this fit perfectly. I can take measurements tonight if that will help.

I have one and it appears to be the equivalent of a 10 gallon tank except it's tall vs long. This tank measures 121218 and a 10 gallon tank measures about 20"Long x 11" Wide x 12"High. So it takes up about the same space as a 10 gal turned on one of it's side. I have one and it's being used for 2 poison dart frogs. I will also be purchasing another one for 1 Crested Gecko

The exact answer to your question is below. If you cannot find the sized piece of tempered glass you are looking for, take the exact dimensions to an auto glass (windshield) replacement place and they will order you a tempered piece of glass to your exact dimensions. You must give them the exact timensions because the 'tempering' treatment of the glass occurs after the glass is cut and cannot be changed afterwards. Anyway, the answer to your question below: I purchaed this unit to replace the original top that came with the PetSmart Aqeon 36" bow front tank. The rectanglular portion of the glass, without the bowfront portion, is exactly 29 and1/16" wide and exactly 7" deep. If you add the bowfront piece of glass with the plastic 'hinge' the total piece is exactly 29 and 1/16" wide and 12.5" deep at it's deepest point. If you notice in the picture, there is a plastic piece that is 29 and 1/16" wide and 2" deep to cover the very back 2" of the top of the tank. I removed this plastic piece completely so my hang over the edge filter can sit on the back of the tank. When I get around to it, I will cut the back plastic piece to cover all of the back 2" rear gap except for the filter. I just have not decided where to put the filter yet so have not make the cut. Right now I just lay the 2" piece of plastic accross the backof the tank behind the light to keep the tank fairly well sealed. This item fits the Aqeon 36" bowfront *perfectly* and the glass is even snug inside the black plastic rim that is glued around the top of the tank. I cannot imagine how anyone could make a better replacement top for this exact tank. The original plastic top that came with the tank failed within three months just as predicted by most other online owners of the tank.

It would cover the 20 gallon tank I have, but tanks have different dimensions. My tank is 20 1/2" x 10 1/4" which would be more than covered by the screen. You need to measure your tank top and compare to the dimensions of the screen.

I just read the other replies and I hope that I have not answered in error. I have a 55 gallon tank that I have 2 of the 24x12 hoods for and they fit perfectly. My 29-30 gallon aquarium has 1 30x12 hood on it and it also fits perfectly.

Hello Shannon, I do not know the dimensions of your 12 gallon. I urge you to look at the lights from Finnex. They are much brighter. The Hagen Fluval is not very good due its poor method of attaching the light to the tank. Get the Finnex fuge ray Planted plus. I have 4 of them and all of various sizes. Hope I could help.

Those are the measurements of the opening of our hexagon tank. The hood fit fine. The first hood they sent had a faulty light which we exchanged. Make sure to keep all of your packaging.

You need (1) 24x12 hood for a 20 gallon aquarium. I have a 30x12 on my 29 gallon tank.

It will fit a 20 gallon tall aquarium. Brands of aquarium are slightly different so if you have an aquarium that is not Tetra or Marineland, you might have to make an adjustment for it to fit. Two of these will cover a 55 gallon tank.

If your tank is 4ft in length, I would assume you have a 72 gallon bow front, as the dimensions are 48x18x22. I recommend the All Glass Aquarium AAG29607 Versa Top, 72bf. I have the Versa top for our 46bf and it's just perfect :)
