Eshopps frag racks

ktaylor660 · Jan 23, 2013

Anyone use these? I bought them a long time ago, and never opened them. I opened them tonight, and honestly I'm kind of mad. The rack is ok, but the sorry excuse for magnet holders are horrible. They rusted, while they have been in a sealed container and never seen water. I pulled them off and super glued the rack to an old Koralia magnet. Now it it perfect. It's very sturdy and no rust to cause problems.

That basically sums up Eshopps frag racks.

I used one for a couple of weeks...it was one of the corner racks. Its now sitting somewhere in the house...went back to eggcrate and mag floats for now lol. But yea I've heard lots of rust stories about those, so I just put it up.

i have one....no real issues with rust. But, those magnets are terrible. and I cant believe that they outside magnets are in a hollow piece. one of mine fell and broke open...sent the magnet flying.

the acrylic rack is nice..but horrible mounting execution!!

Just got a thrive tree the other day....and while i seriously dislike suction cups, I really like the style of the rack. and a mag mount could be easliy implemented
