You did a great job on bending it to shape!
I have it quite "tight" so that I don't think a large fish could push it up. It sits wedged just under the light bracket so it's not sitting ontop lightly but set in abit (if that makes any sense). The only thing getting through this one would be a small fish possibly like a dartfish or something. (Atleast I hope!!)

Thanks everyone for the comments!

looks good. did you diy the top with eggcrate?

i found some silver clolored eggcrate in town and was wondering if it would help reflect light back down rather than absorb it like the white or black.
