Thinking About Removing Screen Cover

[MitsuMike]

Putting plexi over the top isn't makeing it a tub, the heat will stil escape through all the glass

And ill speak from experience when I say your better off spending 20 on a tub and setting it up then the 30 you'll spend on plexi.. the tank will be heaveir and your back will thank u I used tanks untill recently and they are so much easier to clean! Light and movable I totally reccomend tubs. And as for the light, if u really need one you'd be better off getting a tub because then u can ditch the light and not worry about the light.

We r still moving off topic. It's not tub vs tank it's how to make a lid and what material if not plexi.
As for the tank loosing heat I also wrote applying Cork board to the 3 sides will help retain heat so it won't dissipate thru the glass.

As far as price a sheet of plexi at HD is about 12-15 dollars
