Screen's for Rimless Tanks?

[BetURWrasse]

Following, been considering my options for one on my rimless

 

[Fin]

The bird netting shown above will only keep large fish from jumping out. Tried it and found a couple of wrasses dried up on top of it. Use the 1/4" mesh from BRS.

I also found these little clips on e Bay that I plan to use on a couple of my tanks. I haven't made them yet, so I have no pictures of them installed. They come in different metric sizes. They are made to support glass tops, so plenty strong enough to support a screen top.

That's really sweet! Did you post pics of those before? I thought I had seen these on here recently, but couldn't find the thread again.

Just got mine done

No lol just got it today. A member on here made it for me

That's fantastic! You should post a step by step of how you made this!

 

[drstratton]

We're getting some great builds posted to this thread!

He does them custom. Just give him dimensions and you're good to go. I'm trying to find the thread

Yeah, that must have been what I saw. I bookmarked the thread when I saw it, but it was gone when I went back to find it again. I figured it got deleted.

I had that same guy make me one from my Elos! Did great work...it almost fits too tight because of the clips I bought...I opted for white clips because they do break and the white ones are much easier to find in the tank.

Well, I just found his thread over on the nano site and by the time I got through reading his thread, it got locked. Guess no one likes him selling his stuff on the forums. He really makes some awesome stuff. Will try to PM him.

It's it's just site rules, nothing you can do but he did good by me so I figured I should share my secret lol good luck!

Hey guys, thanks for sharing pics they look awesome!!! Unfortunately R2R locked my thread, but I understand that rules are rules I just cant afford their monthly fee (yet) to become a sponsor. I do have a thread going on nano-reef with a bunch of pics if anyone's interested in looking.

@Smiz They locked your thread over at Nano-Reef last night. I did send you a PM there though. From "Phin" over there.
