Egg Crate as a cover

i used something like this seems to work fine in letting light threw
friend works in installing windows and just gave me a whole roll i figured hey if it works it works if it dont well i go buy bird netting or something

 

skyvern, as in actual window screen? no bueno

how much do you need, I may have a big enough piece left, doubt it though, but let me know

 

Enough to go on top of a 29 gallon if not I can get some bird net from hd or Lowe's

 

NOOOOOOOOO that stuff is like fishnet, he'll get caught andd killed, this doesn't work that way, give me a sec

 

sorry sky, just have scraps left, but its worth the cost.

 

That's a no go from brs right now. It's not exactly worth the 15 dollar when I can get 1/4 inch bird net like the video also recommend
I mean I have the money I just find it pointless to buy that and nothing else. When at hd or Lowe's I can get the black version of it for same price

 

bro I have plenty of that but I chose not to use it because that stuff is like a fish net, and the BRS is smooth. I have a feeling a fish jumps in the bird netting, its staying there. Not positive, but I spent the cash on the good stuff.

Find another member that needs it and split the costs. IMO

 

Nah ill just buy a roll from brs and have it on hand for a future build its only 15 I'm just being impatient lol

 

what about a piece of Plexiglas as a cover? we got it at lowe's cut to the exact dimensions needed... other than the cost I guess I think it works best...

 

Plexiglass will block some light. Especially when it's covered in salt.

I actually prefer the black over the clear. Looks much better. And will not block light. I use have both on two different tanks. The clear does not allow any more light through.
