Setting up new tank HELP!!

[adamfajge]

Thinking of getting some brown paper towels for bottom. That will blend in better also. I have a digital on for the top of the tank and the other type for the inside bottom. Maybe I will get another digital. Is covering up part of the screen ok with plexiglass. WIll there be enough oxygen for him

what does your tank look like? got a picture? i know on my aquarium with a screen lid i can cover up half of it and be find. as long as you have some ventilation in there it is ok. and you should be fine with the thermometers you have right now. brown paper towels should be ok. i dont see what it could hurt. might even be better if they are non bleached. let me know how it works.
