making a screen top for my tank
Hi eveyone,
I would like your opinion on this. I'm making a screen top for my tank and i will probably use some bridal's vail as netting. I can get some black or some white. The black one would look better because you can barely see it. You can see the white one more. Do you think that i should use the white or the black ? Can the color of the netting make a difference in the amount of light it cuts. Anybody use bridal's vail as netting? Thanks |

Won't the heat from the lights melt it?

Im just making a screen top out of the screen for windows. I just got the stuff from Home Depot and it did not seem to cut too much light out of the tank when I held it under the lights. I got black but I may try white as well. Its pretty cheap.
