The unofficial egg crate thread!!!!!

Yeah I'm using one for an ATO too.

 

I will join in this is my rock rubble holder can pull all the rock out at once

 

Very nice.

 

i got some great ideas from this thread. nice job peeps

 

Cool Stuff

Nice one razataz

I have read many threads where aniamals get caught in powerheads. When i used them in my tanks i would build an egg crate box around them with just the outlet sticking out of the box. I always painted them with Fusion paint and glued corals on them. This looked much nicer than just a powerhead setting in the tank.8)

 

haha that actually sound pretty awesome! have any pics?

 

No Picture

Sorry no pictures haven't use a powerhead in my tanks for many years. I would build them tight to powerhead except at inlet here i would leave 1/2" space between egg crate and suction for pump. Another trick is to have cord go up through top piece of egg crate so if suction cups came loose cord would hold powerhead from falling down in tank This did not happen often but did happen so i kept spare suction cups and replaced when needed.

 

This thread should be revived

 

Indeed, some pretty good ideas.
