Hi All.

Drawling a blank here. Does anyone recall what the material is named that is used in algea scrubbers (ie the square plastic sheet with tiny square holes. I have a Clareview scrubber cw300 now called adaptive reef. I accidentally ripped my sheet when cleaning. Ideally would like to find the one that’s sized to fit, but I checked the websites and don’t see anything, so now it looks like I just have to buy the material and cut myself, but can’t remember what it’s called.

I use plastic mesh canvas / embroidery plastic mesh canvas from JoAnn or Michael's on the DIY ones I build.

7-point plastic canvas, white, is what we used in 2008. Get a hole saw or wood saw to rough it up real good.
