Hey guys,

anyone know where I can get some egg crate with some pretty small squares. Heck any egg crate at all would be a start.

Thanks,

Dave

I've got two pieces of the almost impossible to find BLACK Eggcrate but it cost me a fortune! $50 a piece! I was planning to use it in the 120 and lean my rock against it but I ended up not using it so I've got $115 bucks worth of plastic sitting in behind a shelf... *sigh*

Paul, that's what happens when you make too much money & don't know where to spend it, next time just give it to me & I'll hold it safe for you...ha ha:moonya:

Dany - As I recall, you're the one that gave me the place to buy it from!

dbradica - You can't get the black stuff at Home Depot. I tried... And Tried.... And Tried. Heh Heh.

Black is less noticeable if you're going to use it inside the tank for whatever reason..

Actually Paul I was the one who told you where to get it.
But on another message board.

DOH! Sorry Sergio (and Dany). I saw an opportunity to razz Dany and had to take it but it was misplaced. HEE HEE :D

Well since you blame me for something I didn't do, I'll offer you $5 a sheet I'll take the 2 you have and the 2 Sergio have, I guess $10 in your pocket better than sheet of dust in the closet...ROFLMAO:idea:

Usually the black stuff is used inside tanks. They can be used at the top of overflows, they can be used to make shelves to hold corals, they can be used to support rock. Lots of uses. Because they're black, they are a lot less noticeable inside the tank.
