Questions & Answers

12 Customer Questions


Will this withstand my 13 lb cat standing on it?

Answer by ChewyNov 21, 2017
This cover is made out of black wire mesh screening that is strong and escape proof. While a standard cat is able to stand on this cover without damaging it, we don't recommend this behavior.

Does a 12inch lid fit a 10 gallon long tank?

Answer by ChewyJun 09, 2021
We recommend measuring your individual tank to see which size would be suitable. The 12 inch measures approximately 12 x 0.6 x 6.5 inches. The 20 inch measures approximately 20.5 x 0.08 x 10.9 inches. The 36 inch measures approximately 36.5 x 18.9 x 0.7 inches. The 48 inch measures approximately 48.5 x 13.1 x 0.8 inches.

Can I put a heat lamp sitting directly on top of the screen?

Answer by ChewyAug 15, 2020
You can place a lamp on top of the screen.

Will a newborn Madagascar hissing cockroach be able to fit through the mesh or otherwise escape?

Answer by ChewySep 23, 2021
A newborn may be able to escape, this is not intended to house newborns.
