Metal Screen Cover for Reef Tank

Don't want to use egg crate and can't find anything but metal screen covers, like the Zilla tops.   Just needs to fit a standard 75 gallon 48"X15" tank.  Not good at DIY projects.  Any suggestions welcome.
 
MartinMan when I find the link I got some plastic mesh I'll send it to you 
 
Hopefully this helps you out man you can get the aluminum framing from BRS 
 
@drex Thanks, Drex:  I'll probably just order the whole kit from BRS:  The Zilla Reptile cover came today, the mesh screen looks to be galvanized.  Guess I'll just use that until I can get around to building the net cover.  The metal screen probably won't rust for awhile.  It's funny I've got a real jumper, a 7" Goatfish that has jumped out twice.  Fortunately I was standing there both times, just tossed him back in.  Seems to be fine.  Tough fish.
 
Cool good luck with your build I went that way cause I just couldn't see paying what they wanted for it when I could build it for some much cheaper and it really looked good people couldn't believe I had built it myself man good luck with your goat fish hopefully he stays in till you get your cover
