I am interested, I've not seen glass tanks with the vented lids like that, is it a job stopping the substrate drying out too much? although with the Brachys it's not so much of a problem, they like it more on the dry side. Of course, if your original vivs were glass, it would have broken them anyway, because with the polystyrene base then the viv and then the substrate on top, it just builds up the heat, which is another reason to put the heat mats on the back.

The vivs are just small fish tanks and lids are off medium Faunariums that the shop let me have from the damaged tanks,
they fit very nicely, I am keeping an eye on the RH for now I think I may have to seal some of the top up a bit.
On a bit of a steep learning curve at the moment, but enjoying every minute. It helps to know that there are people around like your good self to give advice

Ah, we use a lot of clearseal fish tanks, but the lids are light and need weighting down, (as our big T's just push them off and climb out,) and they have got poor ventilation, you have make holes in them. But we've found the tops off the plastic Lee Herp and Exo Terra fit really well, giving extra ventilation and a feeding hatch, we usually clingfilm them two thirds or so, to increase the humidity, especially if the T's are in pre moult.
