I've been reading posts for awhile and I'd like to comment that this is a great site.
My question is regarding the neccessity for a hood on the tank. I am starting a tank with some baby rbps and I don't have a hood for the tank yet. How important is it? I don't want to come home and find any of them laying on the ground next to the tank, but I don't want to get screwed by the pet store on a hood... (Chicago sales tax is a killer) If I do end up getting a hood, I think I want to go with something simple, like a plain glass canopy. Thanks everyone.
