You can skip the splash guard with their optics.

Last check they were glue on. If your concerned about splash once they are secured you can use elmers glue to seal them on the sides. Compared to potting this is also unnecessary as long as salt water or salt creep reach the LEDs.

Some Tanks with Clams and Fish require a shield.
