Default I still have 2 empty tanks!! What to do??

Made the big mistake of looking in my storage closet and they they were..a 20 high and a 33,just screaming out.I figure I can use the exscuse"honey,lets set up one in the kids room for them"
Any suggestions on stocking maybe the 20 high?Anyone have pics of their 20 gal setup?Tank will be run without a sump,or skimmer,and normal lighting(maybe pc)

Why don't you just go to home depot and pick up some acrylic and use that as a top? Or I'm sure someone has some scrap acrylic that you could use.

What are the dimensions? I have a glass top I don't use anymore that might fit.

I may just have a glass top for you then. I have a sliding glass top that I used on my old 15 gallon tank (same top dimension as your 20 gallon) that I switched onto my 20gal bowfront which I have in storage. Let me take some measurements to double check. If it checks out, you can have it for 5 bucks. If you're handy with a glass cutter, I also have a couple of fold-up glass lids for 30 gallon tanks (dimension 36"x12") that you can have for 10 bucks each.
