I searched and found 1 post about this but it didnt answer my question.
I was at my LFS and while talking about lighting the kid mentioned if I was going to run metal halide lighting I would NOT want to use the glass 'tops' for the tank. That the heat could cause the glass to break.
I thought it was ok to use the lids/tops which would help with evaporation, escapees, etc...! And I had heard something about UV filtration as well although that may have been with the use of another part (specific uv filter)
Can anyone give me input on his statement... Any truth to it???
Thanks.
