Can I remove cling film?

Hi all

I've had this dennerle 10l cube growing emersed for a good while now, at least 6 months; but it's always had cling film over it.

Given the time scale and growth from pictures, is this worth the risk to start acclimating without a cover?

If yes, I'm assuming the consensus will be to do so slowly, uncovering a bit per day/week, but open to opinions?

It's Monte Carlo, staurogyne repens and Xmas moss.

Hi all,
air filled or water filled? I have never had any success without very high humidity.
Assuming you aren't going to flood it?

Leave it covered, or get a glass lid.

Thanks guys, can't be bothered flooding so I guess it's cling film until that time!
 
When removing lid have only had good success with Hygrophila sp so far. But I do spray them everyday.
 
Looks lovely.

What is the light? Is it only 20cm long??
