New DIY In-Tank Frag Shelf
 

Built it myself in my 90, its up high so you dont even notice it at the normal viewing angle. I used CPVC (hot water thin pvc), egg crate, and no glue. Im growin soooooooo many frags its awesome![COLOR=deeppink]Check it out![/COLOR]

Good idea, me likey!

Thanks Kuzujanakis!

That is a wicked little set-up :).

I like it too. May give it a try. What light do you have on the system?

aquactinics 7 bulb HO

it looks alot more blue than it really is. its nicely balanced, and the colors are insane.. im not very skilled in aquarium photography yet, but ill take better ones soon!!

Sweet shelf,great design,thanks for sharing.

may i suggest using your left over eggcrate and build a little 2 square high fence around the whole thing
i have had the same set up for a long time and stupid snails were always knocking frags down
so i built a fence with zip ties and no more probs

I am going to do the same thing soon. Thanks for the inspiration :)

Great minds think alike! I made a similar rack solely out of eggcrate with walls to prevent the snails from knocking things over. This is an old picture since I now have one on both sides of the tank.

looks good rapid! How long have you had your sea apple though?

Awesome job!

Nice, can you get this PVC at HD?

***UPDATE***
Im now farming blue xenia on my shelf, pics will come soon. I also am having alot of luck attaching mushrooms to rock on my shelf, ill take pics of that also.
Also all my zoo's are growing onto the pvc, its very cool looking now :} they even grow on the bottom so if you look from the bottom you can see its covered with zoos!



JediReefer------>> yes, just ask for hot water pvc, or cpvc

skeeter-doc---->> about 9+ months now, i feed my tank plankton at nighttime when all the hard corals are feeding... its beem a very successful technique.. i have 3 different species of apples.. i just need a royal apple (not gonna happen lol)

DurTBear------->> now i know why you did this, its really annoying for animals to knock stuff down, i think im just gonna buy a seperate frag tank and use that, that way i can remove this from my display

That's cool great idea do you mind if I borrow it :)

Nick

I feel nice ;)

Very cool idea!

here is an idea. Take an extra pump and plumb the pvc and drill holes in the holder and now you have current all around the frags.

wigo----->> thats kinda a sweet idea actually. thats like super high end lol. hm.
