canopy on rimless?

Can a rimless tank support a lightweight canopy? Thanks!

looks nice! I would totally do that, but mom doesn't like. oh well she let me buy tank. but could I place it on the glass?

I don't know if there is a rule of thumb for putting a canopy on a rimless. I would just keep it as light as possible I guess. The rimless tanks are usually built with thicker glass and stronger silicone so I think it would be ok.

Any reason you want to go with a canopy? It kind of defeats the purpose of a rimless.

My mom liked the look of it until she realized the light and cords would be visible. and yes it does.
