 Plexiglass Lid

I have a 55 gallon glass aquarium that i plan on using for a fruiting chamber and im looking to add a plexiglass lid...
1) can i just drill holes in the plexiglass (and fill with Polyfil for air exchange)?
If not, how do i put the hoses for the PMP setup?
Any other suggestions with setting up an actual aquarium/terrarium...

make the plexi glass lid, and drill holes in it to run the small air hose through, 1/8 drill bit will work.

i was plannin on adding 4 - 1/2" Holes w/ polyfil for air exchange (along with PMP), good idea or no?
Also, yea mines a 55+ Wide Tank. It should hold a good 16 cakes...
Figure 3 rows of 6...

my terrarium's lid was a screen, I used durable see-thru garbage bag, and have no air exchange.

The estimated death toll on Iraqi civilians is anywhere from 80,000 to 1.5 million (most sources lean toward the higher end) That means, in our occupation of Iraq roughly 200,000 people have been killed a per annum. The Hussein regime is estimated to have killed around 300,000 people in the 23 years he was in power. Who was worse for the country?

55 gallon and 12 cakes? What measures does it have? I presume there can be more cakes in there.
I think you can make holes in the plexiglass, you can try a red hot nail maybe instead to make em with.
good luck

a wtf, both even numbers! 
There probably fit more then 20 cakes in there as long as the aquarium isnt too high..
My rubbermaid which is 1,3 foot (40 cm)* 2,3 foot (80 cm) has room for 20 cakes already. And then I measure every cake is 2 inch at the bottom, and there is 2 inch between each cake!

Yeah if the surface is the same then that would be so, but Im curious to the measurememts/size of the aquarium, I think it is longer than 2,6 and wider then 1,3. To say I think he has more surface area then my 20 cake (30 gallon) rubbermaid.
