Thanks! I did turn the moon lights off last night at 11. The light has a timer and it first turns on the blues, then later in the day the whites. Then at the end of of the day it turns off the whites, then the blues. Then the moonlights come on and he set them to now turn off at 11. The fish kept mooching for food with them on, rather than hiding. So they seem bright to me.

I'll look into the screen top for my son to make. Last night the tank wouldn't get warmer than 76'ish. With the biocube hood and lights it was always consistent between low 79 and high 80's. It would get hotter so we would run it with the back opening of the hood open. Now last night our heater just couldn't keep up (it's cold in Calgary and my son keeps his room cold). I'll look into changing our heater and getting a better way to test the actual temp in the tank.

Thanks so much!
