Glass tanks are a little trickier to maintain temps and humidity in, but it can be done. If it's a screen top, try covering 1/2 - 3/4 of the screen with foil or damp towel. CHE over the other 1/4. Fortunately, Houston climate works in your favor so you hopefully won't have to work too hard at this.
BPs love privacy, so most folks who use tanks will cover 3 of the 4 sides with black paper or aquarium backing, leaving just the front of the tank exposed. Remember, nothing adhesive inside the tank. Hit up the dollar store or Hobby Lobby for some inexpensive fake plants, leaves, and/or vines. Give lots of ground cover for your little one to feel concealed in. If you have too much open space, they can feel vulnerable and go off food. Just be sure the plants don't have any sharp pieces, wire or loops that could entangle or hurt your little one.
Also, if you haven't done so already, download the free app Tapatalk. It allows you to upload photos to your thread with a single button/click. Super easy! And we virtually insist upon pictures.
