Legos are ABS plastic, which is generally considered reef safe people have used them in sumps for years without issues. Just give them a good rinse first and avoid any older bricks that might have decals or paint. Solid cheap option for a skimmer riser.

Not everything in that thread is accurate, but I’ve not heard Lego’s are not reef safe.

I would NOT use older legos as they may contain cadmium. Use new ones.
