    Hi Puff Daddy, "P" stands for Profile ;) .
    You're 1st net screen assembled with a suit!
    A..nd yes a metric ruler would have helped.
    You can split the screen in two that way you lift only one part
    The mesh needs to be loose on the outer side allowing it to slide in as you go it will tense inside as well. (that way it will not be hard to get in and reduce the chance of ripping the mesh)
    Loved your review.

    I just finished mine.... it was extremely time consuming cutting it by hand and rolling the spline was hard it kept ripping. Wish it came pre cut to my reefer 350

    Nice walk-through on the screen top assembly. I appreciate the time you spent filming the build while you were working.
    I think if Red Sea wants to produce a screen top that's really compete, they should have some kind of acrylic part that fits into the aluminum frame to allow for cables to be managed and go from inside to outside of the tank.
    Looks nice though. I really dig the clear plastic screen.

    Nice job. It will keep your fish from jumping out. I did a video On the same top for my Red Sea max 650. I like the use of tape to hold it in place. 👍🏻

    I did my cover a few weeks ago I have the same problem in the corners with the wires ..... it was like a work out putting the mesh on with the roller like you say it does the job

    Where the gap is from the top, feed a thin zip the through the mesh holes round the brace bar as a little kind of stitch job, and should bring it back up level, if that makes sense :)

    I just bent mine with long nose pliers to make a gap so my wires fit perfectly and tie wrap the wires and adhesive back cable holders for the back of the tank and next time wet the spline with soapy water to make it slide in easily

    • @PuffDaddyReef
      @PuffDaddyReef  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome tips! Soapy water would have saved me so much effort!

    Did you check out the ClearView Aquarium Lids? custom made and fits perfect. The only thing I didn't like was the price but it's well made and looks great.

      No, I did not think of those. Perhaps when it is time for an upgrade!

    I used the Red Sea screen top and ended up going with another solution but you gotta admit that this is sleep looking and you don't notice it on the tank at all. Did you ever consider making a feeding cut out?

    • @PuffDaddyReef
      @PuffDaddyReef  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I should have. I wonder how I would add a hinge to open and close it.

      @@PuffDaddyReef - My plan was to make a cutout, then get a corner pack and make a square screen net that sites perfectly in the cutout hole I created.

    The diy stuff is great for what it is. But on a tank like yours I’d look into top lids. Aka safe top lids

    I’m kinda disappointed in red sea as there aquariums should come with a lid. My innovative marine came with a great and simple lid for a 1/4 of the price. I did the diy and ended up ordering a lid from clearview lids. I just explained more from them. Live and learn.
