So I had a pair of these awhile back and one got smashed by a rock while i was rearanging my rock (i know stupid but the hide in the rocks) and the other one disappeared. I had an acrylic top with some plastic to cover the little holes. My question is for those out there with helfrichis or any fish that jump and are using metal halides. What do you use so your fish wont go 'carpet surfing'? I am planning on getting another pair for some frags from my LFS as i returned my Hippo tang because i knew my 75 gallon was going to be too small for it. Thanks
 
You need the clear mesh netting and you can put it into a window screen frame and cover your tank. You'll need to replace the mesh material annually since the lights degrade the integrity of it. Username Acroholic here sells the mesh.
 
I was looking at the 1/4" clear mesh that bulkreefsupply.com sells. Has anyone used it?
 
That's the one they were referring to. Like Sara said acroholic sells it in here and it might be cheaper than BRS
