I use glass tops on all my reef tanks during winter, helps keep warmer water temps, the heater doesn't run that often and I just lower the lights to increase the light intensity that gets lost with the glass lids..
Now on summer I use open tops (remove the glass lids), helps cool the tank, the chiller runs less often and I just raise the lights...
