I took my glass tops off so no heat gets traped and I get better oxygen exchange and less light loss. Just figured I would ask if anyone has any ideas on what I can put over the tank that wont block light and keep my wrasses from jump out.

Some people use clear nets or the screens you use for a window.

You could try the eggcrate that is designed for the lights that has a chrome finish on it. Just make sure you put it the correct direction as the way you place it changes the light dispersion.
Does anyone know if this stuff would be safe over salt water as I'm not sure of the metal content on the paint they use for the chrome finish.

I would use the white stuff, as it is just as reflective.

I've seen people on RC do that as well. They buy a square netting material (at HD I believe) and make their own custom 'window screen' with that. It looks pretty nice and works just as good. People with open canopys and rimless tanks go with that since it is not as much of a eye sore as egg crate.
