Okay upgraded lights on the way need some help,

[jkef2010]

Okay so I just bought upgraded LEDs for my biocube. In order to use these lights I have to go topless ( no pun intended...lol). Can anyone advise me on what I could use to make a top that won't reflect the light but will also keep fish in?

See if this helps

I've seen a few tanks with that netting installed on it and not only does it keep the fish in, it looks clean and neat.

Ditto the above. Use the proper netting and you'll hardly notice the netting at all. Take your time and do a nice neat job.

Completely topless will most likely have some degree of reflection especially with properly "agitated" surface area. This can be a plus but in some instances can be very annoying.

Also take note that evaporation might increase due to the open top and you'll want to be more careful with sprays/mists/powders etc in the room where the tank is.

We're going to have to insist on BEFORE and AFTER pics

Oh I will have some before and after for sure. I'm very excited!
