Anyone else have some frag racks they have made?

If weighted full of frags the end in the tank almost needed to sit in the rocks .

It's quite versatile. Just makes me laugh to think about as the firs time, I went to buy some at Home Depot, the employee told me no such thing existed. I made sure to educate him once I found it in the store.

That has happened to me several times! I have used egg crate for many, many things around my aquariums over the years!

That is a really clean look! What is the egg crate attached to and where did you get it?

I understand the black egg crate, but what is it zip tied to?

I used an old Tunze ATO magnet, that's what it's zip tied onto.
