Thanks!
Compared to the price of replacing my Wrasse's - CHEAP!!

I bought enough for my 2 tanks, plus some extra..I'd guestimate less than $20 for a 75g tank. I barely made a dent in the glues and I'm not including the cost of the netting as I already had that.

I do have extra netting if anyone needs some. I can drop it in the mail.

sure I would like some netting to give it a try...my tank is 36" x 18". How much would you like for a piece?

As usual Kathy, great explanation and great workwomanship

Nice work there Kathy, at least now you don't have to worry about jumpers. Very Nice!

KathyC · 03-08-2007, 02:11 AM

Thanks again guys!!

Wes - your netting was mailed today. Anyone else need any?

2 more pics...

The first one shows the door 'stops' to keep it from folding down into the water..kinda sorta important...

The second is a pic of the cube with the cover on it as requested.

I haven't gotten that misplaced handle off there yet...that weldon is really strong!
