    Guys if it was an all glass tank and you needed to keep if shut how would you have a heat lamp on top keeping it warm? Is it ok if you had a mesh screen on top?

    You don't need a heat lamp. The ambient temps in your home along with a low wattage bulb is usually good enough. You can partially cover the top with glass over a screen top.

    I have an Exo-Terra with a screen top and I partially cover 70 percent of the top with glass. Humidity is 85-95 and temps about 78 and the bulb I use generated almost no heat. My bulb is about 10 inches above the tanks top.
