Aquarium lid netting (where to source)

[Steph1]

Hi all, I want to make an aquarium lid using fly screen componants. I am having trouble getting hold of the plastic netting (Shown in image) as I dont know what the product is usually used for, thus dont know where it may be stocked. Does anybody know what this plastic netting is used for or where I might find it?

Cheers

1/4" Clear Netting

Why does BRS recommend this? Every tank we set up at BRS we make a screen net top for. They will save you a ton of money down the line after you have a few fish jump out of your tank, and you find them on the floor. About half of reef fish will jump high enough to get out of a tank, and...

I used it with screen frames from home depot. Works great but the frames are starting to corrode after a couple of years. excellent for the price.

What free shipping on orders over 175 that’s crazy

The description it put with the link is wrong. Shipping is free with orders $39
shipping on netting is only a few bucks anyway.

Thanks guys but I wish to buy locally (Australia) does anybody know the usual use for this netting, I am sure they did not tool up for that netting to corner the aquarium lid market

Probably bird netting,
Google "1/4 inch clear netting"

I purchased bird netting and screen door components from Lowe’s and it works perfectly.

I used fishing net, 6x6 mm. Maybe check for a shop online or locally that supplies fishing nets.
