Lighting through a glass top?

[VFX]

You maybe get it at Rona? Home Hardware? Home Depot? Commercial lighting suppliers?

bump for the best eggcrate pic ever.
Very nice.
what kind of camera did you use?

I used the mighty Google Imaging Camera

(I'd never have 80's style grey carpet with coloured flecks!)

Eggcrate is good for so many things, I think most of us have a least a partial sheet in our garages

You can get eggcrate at any of the big box home improvement joints. You just need to ask for a light diffuser as most people working in the stores will look at you with crossed eyes if you call it eggcrate

I used to use it when I had a tank with a plastic rim on it.. if your tank is eurobraced it makes it a little trickier to secure to the top of the tank.

Would having a glass top, but open sump(in stand w/open back) Limit the O2 transfer and keep heat in? When I upgraded my lights, I had my tank open for a week. Evap was crazy, 1g/day and thats only T5, not MH. I also noticed that the tank temp rose a few deg. Now, with a 5mm glass top, and the TEK 4 tube 24" light tank runs 80.8 in the day, no heater. Evap is less, bout 0.6g/day. I dont want to lose fish due to jumping, nor do I want to be filling RO every day

I use eggcrate in my sump to elevate "things"..... but would it soften or melt somewhat under the heat of the MH lights?
