if you're not running an open sump, I'd advise against using glass or that plexiglass from home depot. Your tank can't breathe, and will get too hot under the MH light you're using. With the hot weather coming, you will probably need to run a fan over the water's surface.
Just use some chicken wire netting available at most feed or agriculture stores, or check King Ed Pets for a critter screen that they use for lizards etc.

I went KindEd yesterday and picked up two wrasses, one Flasher and one pencil wrasse , I know the pencil wrasse was not a smart buy and they are really hard to keep but he was really beautiful and I wanted to give it a shot. I do my best to see if I could keep him alive! and it was really good deal on both.
bought pencil for 19 and Flasher for 14. Pencil was the only male there.

The flasher had a parasite on it ,something wired ,ick size, clear colour and alive!!!

I did freshwater deep him for 5min and checked it out, that thing was gone. I couldn't find it ,I hope it died.

As soon as I put the pencil in tank it went completely under sand. flasher was swimming till the light went of, but I didn't see them today at all!!!!

I covered my fixture with aluminium temporary and I ordered glass for top.

it was cheap 16$ for two peace glass!!

I hope the come out soon.
