Hello guys.. so i recently finished putting together a 36W light kit from AHSupply and I asked around about where to find a glass top for my 10 gallon and someone suggested just leaving the top open to prevent gunk blocking up the glass when it gets dirty and the reflection/hindrance of light.

I was just wondering.. do any of you other guys leave the top open? Has anyone encountered any problems.. like evaporation messing up the lamp?

I've had the light over the tank without the top for 2 days not and i've noticed a lot of little water spots on the reflector.. when i tried to clean a little bit of the spots off i noticed how easy it is to scratch the reflector.. I'm thinking maybe i should find some glass soon? Or do the water spots not matter.. would the reflector rust?
