Clear Screen for top
 
Hey does anyone know where I could score some clear screen netting for a top kinda like this at bulk reef supply but minus the 35$ shipping to Canada

http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/clear-netting.html

Right now I have just the black screen it works good but it blocks some light

thanks

Yeah that's a BRUTAL rip-off. How much do you need?

Craigdillman 12-06-2013 03:48 AM

So hard to find anywhere else

Need 6 foot by 2 foot piece

What do other people use or just the black mesh?

Tule from a fabric store

Sorry, I don't have a big enough piece to help you out. Don't go with the black stuff, fish will still end up on the carpet. Might just have to suck up the shipping like I did last year....even though it's a damn rip off.

Craig here is some info: http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/sho...007#post802007. I have tons of screen left from my roll if you need. Just need to get it from the Hat to Leth.

Ok awesome guys thanks ill check around even if i have to order it in, it will be cheaper than 35$ shipping lol

Craigdillman 12-07-2013 03:09 AM

Found some just it has 1/2 inch mesh so i think I'm going to try to hunt around and find 1/4 but smaller if i can

Craigdillman 12-07-2013 03:39 AM

Nicely done! I have some on top of my tank as well and it really doesn't seem to have an impact on the lighting, doesn't leave shadows either which is nice.
