ya i'm definitely ditching the glass jason, wouldn't trust it with a 400 watt, however i'm definitely not a fan of the ''non-covered tank'' especially with such aggressive eaters, and my fairy wrasse, whose always so hyper and an active jumper, so what could i use for a cover, eggcrate, too hot for eggcrate maybe? the bulb will be no closer than 10'' from the surface
