Black Eggcrate In Regina?

[PuffLuv]

Does anyone know where to find BLACK eggcrate in Regina? I've been able to find white, and now that I've used up most of my white, I would like to use black...

If you can't find any www.bulkreefsupply.com has it. Cheap shipping, but you'd have to order some other stuff to make it worthwhile.

Thanks for the info, I guess if no one in Regina carries any, I'll eventually put in an order with BRS. They just have so much stuff that I want, that its going to really add up...:spin01:

check places that make awnings they use all kinds of that stuff

Hmmm....maybe I'll try Regina Tent & Awning...thanks for the suggestion!

i know they use that stuff! i use to weld tons of awnings! and install them

would black not reduce light? even when I put my white one over my tank I notice a slight differance. It casts enough of a shadow for my clams to notice when I put it on the tank.

I like the black for the cosmetics, as well as you don't really see algae growing on it when its inside the tank. I was going to make a few things with it, such as maybe redoing part of my refugium, making a "euro-brace", frag-rack and it always good for overflows and other stuff.

I was unsuccessful at finding black eggcrate in Regina. Regina Tent & Awning uses white eggcrate, and their supplier (Winroc) only has white as well. So for now, until I make a BRS order, I'm going to paint my white eggcrate black. Some of the eggcrate will be underwater. Does anyone recommend any specific paint? I was going to try to find some Krylon Fusion...
