I gave them a call and they said they don't carry it.

I haven't seen any in the NW home depots. I bought the white ones and spray painted it with black kryon fusion paint.

How is it holding out ? I'm thinking this is the route that I may have to take, did a little more checking in the south and couldn't find any.

I suggest paint the white. I found a place near Douglasdale industrial area that would special order black sheets and it was $20 apiece. But white eggcrate is only a few dollars and the Krylon is about $10ish at Canuck Tire.

It's doing pretty good. No troubles so far. I've had it in the tank for almost a year now. It has some coraline growing on it so it's starting to blend in more.
