Those tops can trap a lot of heat and reduce gas exchange, so I suspect most people don't use them. I have one on a 29g tank, but I've removed the plastic flange and so it has more circulation. I'd skip the glass top on that size tank.

I also have the versa tops for my 90 as well. I don't use them either. I used to but I need more evap and better o2 exchange as Jonathan stated.

Regards,

Pat
