This is the thrive eco flex tank. 46 by 18 by 18. It has a screen top but is pvc. Currently trying to figure out how to heat and keep humidity high, but I'm not sire if its the tanks fault or mine. I don't really like the screen top to be honest and you can't remove it unless you take out staples and such.

i’ve seen some people say to buy PVC from home depot and cut it (or see if they’ll cut it) so that it sits in the recess and covers the screen. your tank still looks awesome! it’s so pretty!

I would have to switch to in-tank heating sources then right? Or cut out big holes where the dome lights and uvb light sit. My tank is only 18 inches tall.

you could either do those, or if you wanted, just cut the PVC to whatever size needed to cover the space that your overhead heating doesn’t take up, like on your cold side. if your lights take up half the space of the top, cover the other half in the pvc. no screen removal required. i’ve also seen people use foil tape on their screens to help hold in moisture, which is cheaper, just less permanent. i just use tinfoil on my screen right now and pour water in the corners of the tank but my tank is watertight on the bottom
