For frag racks, do you prefer acrylic or eggcrate and why?

Acrylic -- looks a lot nicer, and much sturdier (well, if build right). Built in magnets on a lot of them also!

 

[Acrider]

I definitely prefer my acrylic! Egg rate is way more brittle. acrylic is more customizable and adaptable to what you want.

 

[Mike weymers]

Egg crate less expensive easy to cut.

Acrylic for the most part. The black eggcrate doesn’t look horrible tho If it’s for a frag tank only

Acrylic is way nicer looking. Egg crate is more of a DIY material imo. I wouldn't pay much, if anything, for an egg crate rack unless it has some really cool features.

 

[Gorsuch456]

Just curious, is this going to ship with my coral order or a separate order.

I prefer acrylic as it looks better and is available in many different configurations etc.

 

[Zoanthids]

We've got both at the farm but I prefer acrylic as well.

why the preference?

 

[Zoanthids]

why the preference?

Looks nicer, easier to clean and if we accidentally let coral overgrow its plug, it will usually come easily off of the acrylic and can be re-mounted to a plug.

 

[CodyBot]

why the preference?

Zoas are stupid easy to frag when they grow out on acrylic, assuming they don't grow down into a hole. If they grow into a hole, you'll need to break out the scalpel. Other than that, cut your pizza slice in the mat and scrape the mat off the smooth acrylic.

Acrylic. It looks nicer and if something overgrows the plug it is easy to make another frag.

Answer the following question below in this thread:

Automatic feeders: do you use them? Why or why not? If so, which one do you use?

Never used one. That's what the awesome neighbors are for when we go on vacation.

 

[Cell]

I only use auto feeders when absolute necessary, like vacations. Just another potential failure point that I dont think has great enough benefit to outweigh the risk to use daily.

 

[Mike weymers]

Don’t use one. Same as above risk does out weigh benefits

i have the neptune auto feeder. I tried filling it up without removing it but i accidentally dumped the whole thing in the tank. Now i just use it when I go on vacation. I did notice whatever corals where right under the feeder, really seemed to grow!
