Hey does anyone know where I could score some clear screen netting for a top kinda like this at bulk reef supply but minus the 35$ shipping to Canada

Right now I have just the black screen it works good but it blocks some light
thanks
Yeah that's a BRUTAL rip-off. How much do you need?

So hard to find anywhere else
Need 6 foot by 2 foot piece
What do other people use or just the black mesh?

Tule from a fabric store
Sorry, I don't have a big enough piece to help you out. Don't go with the black stuff, fish will still end up on the carpet. Might just have to suck up the shipping like I did last year....even though it's a damn rip off.

Nicely done! I have some on top of my tank as well and it really doesn't seem to have an impact on the lighting, doesn't leave shadows either which is nice.
