Your setup is then probably exactly the same as mine. After fitting the plate glass, I now only have to top up my tank maybe once every three to four months.

I still have a cover too, which goes over the glass top. I cut this away drastically at the back though to accomodate the filters. Although this improved the "spousal acceptance factor" for the tank in general, I personally feel an aquarium looks best with a glass top only, and lighting provided by drop down lights suspended from above.
