So many carpet surfing stories .... we need a thread on "covering your tank"

[daplatapus]

I found some netting at home depot and used their DIY screen rail with corners to make mine. Like paddyob said though, it sucks trying to get around equipment and cords over the sides of the tank. I had some 3/4 acrylic from a job I once did and actually made a 8" frame with it that sits on my tank and my light fixture sits on it. I originally did that to raise my light but once I saw it on there I scrapped my DIY screen I had and haven't lost a fish yet either.
