well, My frag tank's aggrivating me again, I used to have eggcrate, but aiptasia and cheato somehow found its way underneath and tooooook over! I have since got rid of the eggcrate and just leave all the frags on the bottom, but this means I cannot use the normal frag plugs. I'm wondering if any of you guys (which I'm sure there's a couple) have a very functional/nice looking frag tank. My tank's a 30 breeder and it's in a corner so it's kinda hard to get at.

Pictures of your frag tanks would be appreciated with a little info about what you like, what you don't like, what you would do diffarent next time.
 
I like using the eggcrate myself, just put it in, in sections so if you need to get under it, you can remove one section clean up, them move the next one over, clean, so on until your done and put the last section back in.

Eggcrate is good. Nice to be able to swap out frag racks when they get algae growth or even aiptasia. To clean, I soak in acid and then bleach. Dechlorinate with sodium thiosulphate, and they're ready to go again. :)

Honestly, this thread was at the top of the list, and the only one I clicked... Funny, that I saw you here though. LOL
 
Here is my new set up. It is only a month old, so there is plenty of algea still, and I am already considering switching the egg crate out to black acrylic, just can't justify the cost
