Yes, it ought to work. I believe a lid for a 20 gallon long container has the same dimensions as a lid for a 37 gallon tall container (my 37 gallon tall container is just a little deeper). Clips are unnecessary for me. The frame is thicker than my previous screen top. My tank is 30 1/4 inches long and 12 1/2 inches wide, with a snug fit at the top. Because I have small lizards, you may need clips if your lizard is strong, but the top you buy for a 20long is the same top you buy for mine. Hope this helps. I hope it will work for you. I'm not sure how zoo med differs from a regular 20-minute session.
No, it will not swivel in both directions. You can twist the knob to keep it from opening from the inside after it opens upward. HTH:
My lid has a 6 x 6 inch door on it. My cover fits a 20L aquarium, I believe. I'm not sure if the door's size is affected by the cover's size.
On our tank, we've never tried it. Our turtle passed away while we awaited the lid's arrival. As a result, when it arrived, we returned it unopened. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

It's perfect for my crested gecko's habitat. I turned a 20 long on its side and siliconed Plexiglass to the bottom to hold plant substrate. It has a handy little door, but since I don't have screen clips, I just pull it aside so I can enjoy the tank without being obstructed. I'm sure it'd work fine with a tank laying in the traditional manner as well. I don't have any issues with the screen and humidity or temperature, which is probably due to where I keep it, but it's something to think about when using a screen lid.
Very strong metal top tolerates him climbing on the underside on a regular basis, which is ideal for keeping a squirrel in. Because the actual latch to keep it locked appears to be plastic, an alternate lock may be required in the future. Use with zilla latches sold separately to anchor top down, strong enough to withstand 15 cats laying on top drooling over the moving toy inside.
This lid's door is a disaster. I could see right away that it was loose on its hinges, had gaps around the edges, and that the single plastic closure knob was making it warp even more. As a result, I took extra precautions and covered the door (completely defeating the purpose of having easier access to begin with). My corn snake still managed to get away after four days. br>br>Despite the fact that she is only a juvenile (about 18" long), she was easily strong enough to nudge the door from beneath, creating an (even wider) gap and allowing herself to pass. It happened while I was out of the room, so it took her less than 5 minutes to complete. I was fortunate enough to return in time to see her before she vanished for good. I've had this snake for a year in a traditional mesh lid with no door, and she's never escaped in that time. br>br>It's incredible that a pet supply company would sell a product that will cause people to lose their pets. It would only have taken three seconds of testing to realize that this was a dangerously bad design.
A mouse ate the flimsy screen on my 30x12 aquarium tank, which used to have a slid-in and out lid. I got it as a replacement and tried everything I could to make it work, but it's only 1/2cm too short. It's extremely durable, and the holes are impenetrable to escapist critters or their food, and I adore it. However, I will be returning it because it does not fit me. br>br>Now I'm stumped as to how I'm going to replace my mouse. lid that had been chewed Perhaps I'll have to swallow my pride and replace the entire cage.
Fortunately, my leopard gecko is incapable of climbing walls, so it doesn't matter that this lid does not fit snugly on my 29G tank. It's a little off-kilter and awkwardly placed. Because the lock sits over the tank's edge, it can't fully close. As a result, if I want it to be fully locked, it has to sit ABOVE the tank edge, causing the entire lid to be even more offset. Regardless, it works for me, but beware if your critter is strong enough to push the lid off if you don't use hinge locks.
My aquarium is a Zoo Med with a slide-on lid from the pet store. It was impossible to fit the cover over the existing frame because it was too small. Furthermore, the measurements are slightly less than what was advertised. So, using a spackling knife and some elbow grease, I removed the top frame. The frame was made of plastic-covered foam, so it wasn't too difficult to remove, but it did take some time because it was chipping away. After removing it, I cleaned the tank and cut myself on the glass, so my advice is to tape the sharp edges first, then replace the top. It was slightly too wide in the back, but it fit perfectly. I taped it down on the sides and front because there was no frame to put locking clips on. Because I couldn't lift the snake with gentle tugging, it'll be extremely secure. And if I need to take the entire top off for any reason, I can easily re-attach it. tape it. I'm relieved that I didn't have to return the top because it looks fantastic. In any case, there aren't any with the appropriate dimensions. In terms of quality, it was a little wobbly when I first put it on, but it wasn't too bad once I did. The next test will be my overweight cat, who is the reason I'm in this mess in the first place.
This was purchased for our vivarium, which measures 20 feet long. It arrived bound in cardboard, and we could tell it was warped by the way the box was beveled. It was, without a doubt, when I opened it. So much so that if you held one side down, the other would lift about an inch. Thankfully, after some effort, my husband was able to bend it back into place, and it now fits snugly and pops into place like it should. br>br>The only reason I gave it three stars was because it was horribly bent. The packaging was not ideal, and I believe it could have been avoided if the box had been better. It's worth the effort, though, if you get a good one (or can bend it back on your own).
