glass top yes or no

[Lethbridge]

I prefer open top over glass lid for a few reasons: I like the open top look, light intensity is cut slightly with glass lid, and if not cleaned regularly algae/ salt creep etc can build up and reduce light even more. As for evaporation, I use a tunze ato with great success, and i find if your fish are not stressed and compatibile with your other fish, jumping is minimum if at all.

i have open top. and i get about 1 gallon per day of evaporation since switching to LED. (Use to be about 2.5 gallons per day with halides)

i have 3 wrasses and none of them have ever tried to jump out

an alternative could be to use eggcrate.
