Very indeed!

jdieck,

could it be the texture of the material used, instead of chemical leaching?

I recently used a different source of eggcrate in my prop tank(3 weeks ago) and it is algae free for now. the cheap HD brand got covered in less than 2 weeks.

The difference in material on the new one i'm using is it's smoother, thicker and it's black. I figured the black helped reduce available light but maybe it's the texture.

I'll have to look for a white piece to try out.
