Any other input on my other questions?

Instead of putting eggcrate on the top of your tank you can just buy the window kit from Rona and order some low profile mesh from brs, looks a lot more neater if that is the look you are trying to achieve.

I should be able to silicone a few small strips of glass to the insides of my tank for the eggcrate to sit on. Then I will never have a problem with foggy/etched glass. But hey I have no clue what I'm doing! just reading as much as possible and not rushing the process

Don't bother Silicone glass to the inside, just use these guys:

Easily removable for when you're cleaning up for the FTS. Those should work for egg crate if you don't feel like making a screen kit.
