Have a question, do glass tops magnify LED's? I have 2 120 watt LED's on a 125 gallon tank, they are dimmed to about 50% but still seem very strong. Hence the reason for my question, thank you for all your valuable advice in advance

No, the glass will actually steal a little bit of power from the lights

Most glass tops over time will also build up a haze which will further steal from the intensity of the light.
