This is how I DIY my fish case which I mentions in my introduce fish post.
If you cant afford a fancy acrylic box.
what you need ?
- 1 eggcrate ( home deport $16 )
- small 50 ziptie
Benefits:
- Cheap
- Can be designed what ever shape based on your tank
- Fish can see through ( for introduce purpose)
- When you feed food will go through so you dont have to worry about the left over in the case ( introduce fish post)
Final product

Hi welcome to R2R. I made something similar for putting my bags in while acclimating coral or fish. I just attached a strips of eggcrate bigger than my opening of the tank to the top so it can't fall in, instead of using magnets, or at least I think that is what that black part is.
 
I used the magnet cuz the middle frame of my 75 gallons QT tank. lol

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
