Group Buy for Picotope Lids!PLEASE POST IN THIS THREAD IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GET IN ON THIS GROUP BUY. Payment is required before I place the order, as they require pre-payment.
This Group Buy closes on
NOVEMBER 20th. All Payments must be received by that date. To get in on this group buy,
YOU MUST POST YOUR INTEREST IN THIS THREAD.
This Group Buy is for a Plexiglass Picotope Lid with a Hinged Feeding Door -
$45.00 SHIPPED!

These are made from 1/4" Plexiglass.
CURRENT GROUP BUY LISTI pulled this list from the previous group buy thread, please CONFIRM that you are still interested in THIS thread. Thanks!mannkind [PAID]Beachbum [PAID]Baroose_Le [PAID]CrisCat [PAID]Zoanthidricordeagsp[PAID]iamjpapz[PAID]parrottfish [PAID]gregzbobo [PAID]fewskillz PAID]husonfirst PAID]fiamjpapz[confirmed]monkeypox [unconfirmed]kill4u [unconfirmed]MedicBMC [unconfirmed]fiddly_foo [unconfirmed]fiction101 [unconfirmed]boltp777 [unconfirmed]Payments can be sent to grasshof@msu.edu - make SURE to include your Nano-Reef.com username in the PayPal notes.
Disclaimer: I do not make these lids, I created a template from my own Picotope that my local glass shop uses to create the finished piece. Your Picotope may be slightly different in shape than mine, thus your lid may fit slightly different. The lids are made from 1/4" plexiglass and area all done by hand, so each piece is unique. Repeat: These are hand made so that each one is slightly different, and have minor imperfections, but over all they work fantastic and look great.

This Group Buy is Now Closed
Thank you to everyone who participated, we had 10 paid orders this round, which is fantastic. I stopped by my local glass shop this morning and placed the order. Considering that this week is short due to the holiday, my estimate is that these will ship out early to mid next week.

Group Buy Update
Thanks again to everyone who participated in this Group Buy. I was able to Weld the hinges on to all of the lids today, so they're ready to go. I'll start shipping them tomorrow and Friday, and possibly into early next week. With any luck, they'll all go out by Friday.
FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO MISSED OUT ON THIS GROUP BUY, BUT WOULD STILL LIKE A LID: PM me directly with the subject "Picotope Lid GB Request" and I'll put you on my "people to contact" list when I start the next group buy.
Thanks all!

Do these get a lot of salt creep on them? How often do you find yourself having to clean them?

I made a little DIY acrylic lid for my pico and I clean it everyday cause of the salt from evap/splashing.
