Eggcrate

Anyone know whether home depot sells eggcrate or not ?
Need to build a cover for my tank so that no fish can commit suicide.

Yes, but ask for the "light diffusers" or the Home Despot drone will stare blankly back at you.

Another option might be nylon mesh.

Did you make it yourself or bought a ready made ?

I haven't really made up my mind what I will get, whether use glass, acrylic, eggcrate or nylon mesh as you suggested.

My concern is whether it will reduce or block the light.

Not my tank but would be what I would use if I made a top.
IMO it would block less light than eggcrate.
