Foam padding?

Yeah foam padding seems to work the best. Just try and get a darker color, black, gray.

Don't use powerhead. Just use a wavemaker if you want wave in your tank. That's my opinion.

I used screen mesh from home depot. 6 dollars for a huge roll. that and some zip ties. looks somewhat ghetto but at least I can sleep at night...lol

looks something like this:

What is the screen made of? Nothing that can harm the aquarium?
I thought about using it.
