    I'm not sure what you got, but I know we got two pictures of bubble wrap; one focused, one blurry.

    EDIT: A few seconds too late for this humor, it seems...

    Aqua-mags are rocks with magnets inside them so they can be placed on the wall of your tank and corals a fixed.

    They are sorta a cheaper or less DIY intensive version of a custom rock wall.

    I got them today and I already love them.

    What I like:

    They are ridiculously porous. So much so they even float at first(when off magnet). Because of there porousness they can be broken apart to frag corals.

    They are easily moved around the tank and taken down when you move the tank. They allow you to have rocks high up with out a precarious rock stack.


    What I don't like:
    The magnets could be more powerful. They only work on 1/2" glass. I think they are great for smaller tanks but not for larger ones, especially if you want some huge acros hanging on them.

    LMAO it really was a rock!

    That's pretty cool! I bet they look really nice once they are covered in growth.
