Where can I find fish gaurd mesh?

[Scoobaman17]

I have seen it on a guys tank with overflows after he had his neons go into the overflow. I have the same thing happening now with small fish in a big tank and I'm trying to find the plastic mesh like stuff to put around my overflow. Aquarium safe though.

Anyone know what I'm trying to say?
~Thanks!

I found some stuff at Home Depot called gutter guard. Been using it for years.

I use the same as mfinn and can be found in the gutter section at Home Depot. It comes in a roll and is usually black.
I use it in my sumps to keep snails away from my pump inlets and in our Nanos to keep jumpers out of the back compartments. Its flexible plastic and easy to use/shape for what you need.
