where can I find some egg crate?

[RussC]

I've looked around the internet but egg crate is harder than I thought to get a piece. Sure, there are small pieces sold by fish stores. But I was hoping to by some around the 2' x 4' range for cheap. Suggestions? Looking to raise my skimmer in the sump about 3". Was gonna build me a small lift out of egg crate. Other thoughts or suggestions?

Home Depot, Lowes etc. You can find it in the electrical dept. It is used in 2X4 drop in ceiling lights.

You can cut the piece to size and give it elevation with pvc pipe cuts used as legs.

Yep. Except they will call it "light diffuser" there

Ask for a 2X4 troffer egg crate diffuser. I think it is 4 or 5 dollars.

Thanks! I think I found some. I was searching using the wrong terms. I'll head to HD tomorrow.

Wire cutters work great with this

A jigsaw makes a nice clean cut as well
