IMHO firstly I would say to keep your astro camera for astro. Yes you can use IR/UV filters and custom white balances to take day time photographs but in my experience, you’ll tire of switching between the two very quickly.
As far as clear glass replacement vs no replacement, I’ve done both. I found that my images came out better with no glass. However, don’t underestimate how much this changes the focus point of the camera. It is quite significant. To the point where on my F/4 imaging newt, I run out of focuser travel and have fitted a parfocal collar to my MPCC to give me the extra length I needed. This was never even close to an issue with my clear glass camera. Not to say it’s not possible or even a bad idea, just something to keep in mind.
As far as other filters are concerned. The STC duo and L-Enhance filters are gold. But as Bojan said, that can wait till later.
