I need help with a lid for my tank

If you need really small you can get the 1/8" holes

This is the screen mesh I bought from brs. Works great. I also bought some diy screen parts from Dierks here. Things like a feed door and wire cut outs for the screen spline to go threw. Previous I built a screen with an opening, using extra corners. The opening came out kind of flimsy so this next time I’m going to try Dierks 3D print outs! Just bought them yesterday so I’ll come back with an update when they arrive.
 
I used a window repair and made a diy one using:

On a 125 g

I used HD frame
corners and feed doors and wire ways from a member here
1/4 Inch mesh from brs.
My size is not easy, especially with the feed doors and Z's around overflow,
was hard to apply screen without flexing the frame
This was my latest attempt and using it until more screen comes from brs

Couple more hidden frame supports and I should be able to get it tight...

As for now, my screen is not dipping ino water
