First, thanks to @revhtree for the opportunity to become an official sponsor!

I have been in the saltwater industry since 1996 and have been working with wood and plastics since 2004. Every product I sell has been fabricated by myself, right here in Arizona! I specialize in custom products that nobody else offers.

Octo Lids™: I first started building these in 2010, before anyone else. I use 3/8″ clear plastic and 1/4″ clear mesh netting. Cutouts and feed doors are available upon request.

Octo Strong Magnets™: I use the world’s strongest magnets – N52 rated neodymium (rare earth) magnets. These are powerful enough to do some serious damage to people and objects, but they also provide the strongest holding strength for things such as: frag racks, nem/acclimation boxes, float switch holders, probe holders, etc. I fabricate acrylic pods to seal the magnets and keep them away from your water. Neodymium magnets are very corrosive and should not be exposed to water. Check out my magnet article right here on R2R!

Plastic fabrication is both a science and art. It can take years of practice to learn how to cut and weld plastics properly. Luckily for you, I have such experience! If you need something and don’t see it listed here, just contact me.

I left a message on your website. I want to order a skimmer stand and heater holder. Can’t figure out how to order the skimmer stand. Please help!

Order placed! Thanks for the email. Looking forward to getting this stuff for my build.

Once everything get set up and lights mounted, it will be time for an Octolid!
 
Do you make the black (polycarbonate?)overflow covers? I thought I saw you post about them but I didn’t see them on your website

i don’t have black polycarbonate right now. i can make them out of acrylic but you risk having them warp.

I don’t know if you’re into that, but overflow covers are EXCELLENT candidates for 3D printing.
