Out of curiosity, what's the humidity like in your area?  Evaporation
isn't the only concern. I'd absolutely love an open-top aquarium and in
summer it would be no problem, but here in Chicago in the winter *I* dry
out, nevermind the plants.  My current glass top doesn't entirely cover
the tank and occasionally some plant peeps out through the gap.  It
doesn't take long at all before the exposed leaves start turning brown and
crispy.
