Does anyone know where I might find a hood to fit a 36" bowfront? I
have the standard 36" rectangle that came with the AGA tank, but I'd
like to put in more light and fit the tank shape.

I've seen something for a bowfront, but it may have been what you already
have... ever thought about DIY?

I've thought about trying DIY, but I'm not very good at construction
or woodwork. I might consider it more seriously if I could find good,
clear instructions for materials and techniques. I have no idea how
to even approach making a curved structure out of wood!

There are a number of 36" powercompact strip lights that would give you
much more light. AGA even makes them now. Check Big Al's online.

Here are some instructions for making a wooden canopy for a 7 gallon
bowfront tank. I am sure the idea could be modified for your tank.

Let us all know how it goes.
