Tapped the wooden top into the tank about a half inch down. Kept it as high as possible since it is a smaller tank. Used #12 x 1" stainless pan head screws and secured the top through the tanks sidewall. Caulked the top and blind caulked the underside (gunk and feel method). Hopefully with the snap lid I will be able to fill as much a s possible with worrying about the slop. Now, just need to add Power Bubbles, a saltine cracker, enclosed ice chunks, and some bait!

For those who may stumble across this thread in the future and want to build your own tank, take a hard look at the specs that NIB and Stiff Tip lay out before starting - that's the real deal and there is tons of info buried in their posts.
