Cheaper version or alternative to BRS Aquamesh????

[duganderson]

Bulk Reef Supply sells this cool mesh that can be used as a divider in sump, water separated, etc. etc. Curious if anyone has a cheaper version of something that would serve the same function?

I’ve never seen this stuff (very coarse) before. Looks pretty nice, but it is pricey.

The material is enkamat (the same as used in skimmer meshmods but a different grade). You can search enkamat and see what you can find but it's hard to source small pieces of it IIRC.
