Designed with aesthetics and performance in mind these racks are both visually stunning and highly adaptable. With rounded edges, beveled neon inlays and a beautiful textured finish the presentation is stylish, sleek and second to none. Each neon frag rack is not only great for displaying your coral frags they are also extremely customizable and expandable. At 7.67"x7.67" these racks are the perfect size for transport, maintenance and every day use, making lifting out and placing in tanks a breeze but if you're looking for a larger rack don't worry as these racks are also modularly expandable!

Expandable: These racks are expandable to make larger arrays that fit any common dimensional needs. Do you need a larger array? Of course you do! Simply purchase our CFT Frag Rack Joiners (Sold Separately) and pressure fit them to the bottom of the racks (2 to each side) for a stronger, larger array system to meet any common dimensional size needs. Bust them down easily for cleaning or transport and re-assemble them as needed! Our Frag Rack Joiners are superior to zip ties in many ways. If you are thinking of combining into a larger array, you will want to be sure to purchase the joiners.

Superior Performance & Adaptability: All 4 corners and all 4 sides of the rack contain two native AcroGrow Tree Mounts each giving you 16 total mount points for our patent pending AcroGrow Modular Tree System and converting this rack into the tree system's base support. Take advantage of your tanks vertical space ABOVE the rack. There is no other rack on the market capable of this level of expandability and practical performance!

Stackable: All 4 corners of the rack are conveniently designed for stacking making transport to and from shows and swap meets easy! You can fit up to 2 Low Profile Frag Racks stacked nicely in a water-tight food storage container like this one: 2 Pack 3L Amazon Basic Food Storage Container

Now those are some amazing-looking frag racks! I love how you can expand them!
 
Our latest design actually takes them to the next level, we added 1/4" holes across the rack to increase flow-through and prevent detritus buildup. The holes also serve another purpose but we'll unveil that at a later date!

Very cool frag rack system by the way.
First of all, will you be offering a Black Friday sale on your racks.
What would I need to order to get something like the Orange rack photo with the vertical tree attachments and 5 to 6 frag platforms. I would want all of the platforms with holes to accept standard ceramic frag plugs. Thanks
 
Yes the platforms all have standard frag plug holes for regular ceramic plugs so you don't need to use CFT plugs to make use of the system at all.

You would need to buy Trunks, Platforms and Branches to take full use as seen in the photo. The amount is really up to you.

All of the tree parts are available here: AcroGrow Tree System

At a minimum, you'd want to get a 4 pack of Platforms ($19.99 -- Holds 12 standard frags each - 48 total), 4 Pack of Branches (9.99) and 8 Pack of trunks (9.99) (sometimes you want to double stack the trunks, it generally seems that you use more trunks than you do branches/platforms) and of course the rack itself

This would be nice to get you started and then you can always add additional platforms branches and trunks later down the line as needed. They make a tight fight but depending on how crazy your design gets a little glue will make things more permanent and sturdy. I would of course never use glue where the actual connection to the rack happens because it's nice to be able to bust it down for cleaning.

Yes you can anticipate up to around a 20% off discount coming for black friday
 
Any chance of adding magnets to them so we can attach them to the side glass?

I don't think it would work as I had considered for example just adding the tree mounts to the magnetic racks we are already making but the amount of leverage when adding tree branches and multiple platform is pretty heavy, especially as they extend outward from the base. It needs a strong support base to allow you to branch out and with a magnet would not really work to well when considering adding the weight of all the corals and frags to the platforms etc.

We sell a free-standing base that is about 8.5" wide that you can bury under the substrate/sand/rock, then use multiple trunks to go straight vertical out of the sand.

But we may come up with other mounting mechanisms in the future so not ruling anything out with it to be sure. An obvious one might be to make something that can be epoxy'd to the Rockwork but even epoxy doesn't give the strongest hold when you are talking about adding leverage to it.

Have you guys thought about a corner frag rack?

Also, do you know if your magnets are strong enough to work through a Rubbermaid stock tank? (I haven’t bought the stock tank yet but figured I’d ask before trying the one you guys sent me already).

I'll check for you on the Rubbermaid get back soon~ Definitely working on some corner racks coming soon!
 
I picked up one of these racks with frag tree additions on Black Friday.

First impressions, I like it. Went together nice and easy, endless configurations are possible.
There are 2 sizes on some of the locking mechanisms. The smaller size ones are a little on the fragile side but I just used a little bit of Super glue on those connections to make them hold solid. The majority of the system uses the larger size connections, no glue needed, and nice and solid.

I really like the new pedestal frag plugs that use the smaller holes in the rack to raise them up a bit.

This rack is going to hold the Goni collection. Just have not had the time to transfer everything over.

Looks awesome! Mine is in, but I don't have the space yet to put it to use. ETA now 2 more weeks till upgrade. Magnet is super strong though!
