I've got two screen top tanks that formerly housed dwarf monitors that I'd like to use (eventually) for PDFs. One is a 40 gallon and the other is a 60 gallon, both brooders. The tops is all screen, and the sides of the top have grooves where the screen slides in. What's the best way to cut down on the ventilation? First I thought about having a piece of glass cut to slide in and not use the lids, but that would leave a gap in the front since the front trim is on the lids. Then I thought about buying a piece of glass or plexiglass and siliconing it to the top of the screen, but decided that it might grow alge on the screen. Then I thought about siliconing it to the bottom, but was worried that the piece might come loose and fall in the tank. Which is best? If none, then feel free to suggest something else. The big one I plan on using for my leucs once they get to be adults.
Went to my storage locker today and did an inventory of my different tanks:
45 gallon tall (was thinking about using this one for thumbs later)
40 gallon brooder (tincs, maybe)
37 gallon cube (for my azureus later)
55 gallon standard (undetermined)
2 20 gallon longs (undetermined)
3 10 gallon standards (undetermined)
That's not including the 40 and the 60 gallon screen tops, which are both at my place along with a 20 gallon standard. My parents think I have an aquarium fetish.
