Intank Filtration Cover?

Wondering if anyone is running the Intank Filtration cover on the rear chambers of their innovative marine tank.  Considering getting a custom lid made for a lagoon 25 and was wondering if it would be worth it to have the lid account for the variance needed to fit the Filtration cover or if I should ditch the cover for fear of not using it eventually and the lid no longer being a tight fit.  Thoughts? Reviews of your cover with pros and cons?  Thanks! 

My hopes is that it would aid in blocking light spill from a small refugium run on an alternating light schedule from the display, and also for the finished looks

I’m running one. It does hang over into the display. Has cut outs to sit on the filter divider and the back of the tank. It will get in the way of a lid. That being said it can sit on the divider rather than over it, just not as sturdy. I had to cut the rear over hangs of the stock IM cover. Pics attached.

Has anyone mounted a light to the top for a refug light source?

Thought about doing that as well. Issue I see with that is the cord getting tangled or issues with easily getting the cover off for access to the filter area. I purchased a deep blue solar flare single led spotlight. Mounted to the back and angled it down into the back chambers.

wish intank made these for my cvue

 

We may look at the C-Vue again but Cobalt has had insane supply issues for almost a year now and sales on that aquarium are "dead".  Even the MJ pumps are impossible to get a hold of.  But I watch this constantly so if demand changes we will invest in new products 🙂
