You can put layers of acrylic and take one sheet off every hour. You can also float the bag, the bag will filter some but not a lot.

Along those lines you can use layers of window screening. But I am lazy, I just started doing this myself last week by suspending my new halide lamp further away from the tank than normal. This week I'll move it down.
