Glass lid condensation

[Raysup88]

So I think the glass top lids look good but the condensation is ridiculous. Now that I’m starting to get into coral I think this may become an unnecessary issue of mine. I just now thought to prop up the front piece to sit above the rim so there’s spacing maybe that would help? But idk if maybe drilling some small holes around the glass? Or going with a diy lids?

People use screen top lids, not glass

If you are going to keep coral that condensation will impact lighting pretty significantly. Just DIY some screen lids. There are a few threads on here showing how to do it.

You can use glass. Just use screen to cover were the plastic is.

What they said. Before I upgraded I had a glass top. My new tank has a mesh lid.. It's by far superior, and have noticed a big positive impact on my corals.
