for 18.98 I bought a 20"x30" tube extension (10" version) used for tube skylights. It is 95% reflective and is easy to bend. I made a reflector for my 10 gal. canopy and my 40 long canopy , and it works SUPER GREAT!!!...just figured I would share the info!

Thanks leebo. How thick is it, will it withstand saltwater splashes? Some of them when saltwater splashes on them change color.

meets florida code for water resistance , as far as changing colors...I dunno..It's thick enough to hold a bend perfectly(I used a 2x4 as a straight edge)has the feel of aluminum flashing. I got it at home depot in the windows section.

the 10" tube stretches out flat to 20x30 " 18.98 is what I paid

they have a 4 footer that cost 89.00...I might see if that is cheaper for DIY for my 90 gal canopy price wise
