You can try it and find out. Easy to remove it later.

Yeah I was going to because I did some research and keep seeing that done. How is yours? Im not set on doing that though. I think the main idea is to keep any small fish or snails, ect out of the plumbing but since this is a FOWLR with no snails, crabs or small fish (smallest is 4") I may not need it.
