I picked upp some fiberglass screen netting and velcro and have fashioned it to the top of my tank. Working out pretty well except that I have to figure out how to make a door opening to feed the fish and how to fashion it around my protein skimmer without it sagging.

I have a 45 long that is going to be a FOWLR so I don't care as much about light getting through. I want it to hold a snowflake eel and some other fish. I have a huge HOB protein skimmer that makes covering the tank a biotch. So I was thinking of using some kind of netting or screen, but I...

Hi back at ya

tank is empty except for some live rock. I had a snowflake eel in there, but it didn't make it so I got this new skimmer to help pull out junk. It is only saltwater and rock with probably not much protein to skim.

I did the same thing. Switch me to the updated one with coral and such. Might not matter it has 11 votes already

I forgot that I got my live rock from them. I remember having a conflict and wanting them to deliver my rock on a Saturday and I paid the extra fee. They ended up delivering early on Friday at the post office. I went into a panic that all my LR would die since I couldn't get it until the next...
