This is a design that I've found helpful with my aquarium.  It is a chute that fits with a standard type glass aquarium canopy giving you a good place to feed, dose medicine, add water etc.  

The need arose for me with setting up my auto-feeder when I was going to be away from home.  If I simply took off one of the plastic pieces from the glass canopy and set the auto feeder on the glass canopy water would splash up and the food in the auto feeder would get wet and clogged up.  However by using this chute, I was able to set the auto-feeder on top of the filter instead and it was high enough to avoid the splashing.  

This is also good, if you have fish that tend to jump.  You can use this to reduce the risk of jumping out of the aquarium as opposed to leaving a piece of the plastic off of the canopy.

I suppose it is a bit of a niche, but it does a good job for my set up and I think it has a place.
