I have a 75 gallon all-glass branded tank and hood/light assembly on top.

My LFS had the matching canopy for my stand. It's All-Glass branded as well.

Problem... The top of my strip lights contact the bottom of the canopy door when its closed. This would create a lot of heat and might cause fire in my opinion.

Do I need to install a lower profile lighting system. I was p[lanningon ordering the glass cover, but this would not change the position of my strip lights.

you might try getting a one piece lighting/hood set. The one on my 20g is all one piece and works well. I don't really know how expensive that would be, or if such a thing exists, but in my mind that would be the way to go if possible.
