Covering the Overflow box. (1 Viewer)

I don't think it has to be as strong as a glass cleaner magnet. It just has to be strong enough to hold on through the acrylic. I have not tried it so I'm not really sure. I would look at Hobby Lobby for some. I know your looking for an excuse to go anyway. I bet you could find something strong enough. Take a little scrap acrylic with you to try them out.

You're right, Alan, but I almost don't really need an excuse to go
Though I am currently pretty well stocked on my painting supplies at the moment, it is a good excuse to browse.

I'll look for that mesh stuff, too. I may have some left over and would be willing to share

It's called "plastic canvas." I use it for aquarium stuff and it works well.

I found some nice copper screen that will work well for covering my overflow box plus it is pretty too.

Copper??? I thought that was a no-no for salt tanks, or anything metal. It probably won't stay pretty, though, even if it is safe.

Copper is bad for a reef, it kills inverts. Tom knows it and was being funny.

I forget about Tom being a wisea$$. At least I'm not going too crazy......YET.
