This is normal black plastic mesh bought from hardware shop. Cost me only $4 for 2 ft x ~1m.

I saw similar plastic mesh at C328 too. Am also using plastic ones and bought from a hardware shop in Serangoon North but square holes slightly bigger.

Looks good Fran! May I ask from which location did you purchase your black mesh? Is it easy to cut them?

Bought it at hardware shop near kovan mrt. Very easy to cut with normal scissor as only thin sheet of plastic.

[Urban Aquaria]

Looks good!

Btw, once the moss wall is fully grown out, since the plastic mesh is flexible... can try to unhook it and lay it on the substrate = instant moss carpet.
