Pumilo: Thanks for the links, they are just what I am looking for now that I am in the process of building a new exo 18. Question on your window screen DIY: (In my case) when I put the screen on top of the exo would I need to silicone the glass to the vent, joining them, or just make sure it fits tightly, since the lid will never be removed?All of mine are both vented and have internal circulation fans. http://www.dendroboard.com/forum/parts-construction/63781-screen-vent-construction-how.html DIY Air Circulation | GlassTropics http://www.dendroboard.com/forum/parts-construction/55446-diy-tank-air-circulation.html
The screens in my how to thread are going to be very lightweight. If you do not silicone them, some sort of attachment would be in order. I think most determined frogs could squeeze under them.Pumilo: Thanks for the links, they are just what I am looking for now that I am in the process of building a new exo 18.

Also for anyone: Is the placement of the vent critical? Meaning it is better to put in front as opposed to the back, or middle?
this is different than what some folk are doing....How many of you have vents on your viv? Is it something that should be done?
