So I have a 90 cm X 45 cm aquarium. I purchased 2 X 45 cm x 4 mm thick acrylic sheets to act as a cover.
These worked fine for about a week and then they started to bow, with LED lighting and no real heat in the area.
I want to replace these with one single sheet, with a central hole for feeding access. What is the recommended thickness for the acrylic covers so sagging/bowing is limited. I don’t really want to go for a glass cover as there is a few odd cutouts that I need to do.
