If I had to I vote filamented I like the pinks and purples that can show up on them, but eaither are nice wrasses...and until you get into the pricy rare ones or the hard to keep alive (leopards)..some of the nicer flashers/fairy wrasses. I want a mystery wrasse, that's off topic and an expensive meal for my frogfish.




R...
if you want to cover the tank, get that plastic wall corner material (you know protects corners of walls...i dunno what is called...edging?) or even the aluminum (what is used) make a square/rectangle whatever fits your tank so it sits on top off it, paint it with say krylon fusion...(think thats what i used, or whatever reef safe paint you can find) fit and stick down gutter guard in between (i used hot glue and some gorilla glue) viola you have a top that if done carefully looks not to bad, plus lets light in and the gutter guard doesn't seem to warp. nothing jumps through it like through eggcrate.
