DIY light blocker for my AIO cube

[BriDroid]

I was getting tired of light spillage into the AIO section of my AIO. It was causing algae to grow in the chambers, in the skimmer and on the fleece roller. I had some leftover PVC board from my DIY controller board and cut a piece to fit. I was just propping it up, but I would hit it sometimes and it would fall into the tank.

Then I found these lid holders on Amazon. I bought the version for my back glass thickness and cut off the lip. I then glued them onto the board and I now have a stable light blocker!

Just thought maybe someone could use the idea.
