LF: Clear Mesh to build screen top
 
So I have encountered an issue

This fabric being so light decided to Waterloo it self (my water level is very high to the top)

I'm also spanning 5.5'

Wonder if the dyes used for that fabric will be of any issue with the tank if it ends up getting wet, etc?

I had that happen once as well.
I figured I hadn't made it tight enough.
Just re-stretch it a little tighter, its pretty tough stuff.
Try stretching it more across the shorter span.
After redoing it its been fine for more than a year now.

Pretty sure its not dyed but actually a black plastic mesh
