Thanks lenastorms- I've been contemplating how I'm going to cover the lights and not make it look like crap. Not an easy task. I tried chicken wire, it was fugly. I'm thinking of some kind of screen mesh made into a cube to go around the bulbs and mount that to the lid.

Those plants were not real expensive so we can get more of those. I was worried about food escaping in too much vegetation though (we have fed live prey since day 1).

Now that I have one built the next one will me much easier and better designed. I did a lot of trial and error on this. I'm pretty good with this kind of stuff but this was a unique project.
