Anyone know of a good source for stainless steel mesh? The kind use to grow riccia / mosses.

Home Depot should have it but its in large sheets. Four feet squares I think. It has a decorative look to it. Its made to be cut to size for larger air vents for houses. It would either be in building materials department or doors. They may also have it in building materials in their fencing department in large rolls. They usually have about 10 or 12 different types of fencing rolls so I imagine one of them would be stainless steel.

That looks perfect! I'll swing by Home Depot later today to see what they have. For some reason I always thought what they had was aluminum based.

$10 bucks a square foot huh?!

Just curious, what would aluminum do to tank water? They use aluminum to make water bottles for humans so I wouldnt think the effect would be too great on an aquarium.

Aluminum is toxic to plants, fish and inverts. More noticeable at pH extremes - but better not to take a chance.
