Egg Crate in Calgary
Where does everyone get egg crate from in Calgary? I wanted to make something to keep my fish in the tank.(havent lost any yet and would like to keep it that way). I have a glass top but would rather not use it. Any other suggestions to make a easily removable top that keeps the "jumpers" in?
Thanks. |

Home Depot and Rona have it in their lighting department. I think they call it a "light diffuser". If you ask for egg crate there you will just get a weird look

I'd stick with white. I don't think black would work to well.

Black or white doesn't matter. Buy the white stuff and if you don't like it paint it whatever color you want with krylon fusion. Last time I picked some up it was in the ceiling tile section. I looked all over the light section and got the blank stare even when I asked for light diffuser.

+1 on the recommendation to just paint it if you want something other than white (Krylon Fusion, neither Home Depot or Rona carry it, but Canuck Tire does). I went and bought black eggcrate once, not only did I have to special order it from some obscure specialty shop (don't even remember who anymore ) but it took a couple weeks to come in and was like $20 per sheet. Whereas white is, what, $3 each or thereabouts. So lesson learned there..
