I noticed that there wasn't much on Thingiverse as far as frag racks were concerned. If you own a 3D printer, or know someone with one, then try this! I designed a frag rack that can hold a whole 67 frags in a relatively compact space! This will fit 1 inch plugs side by side.

I have a beta version in my tank right now, and it is holding my frags with much swagger and structural integrity.

Did you do anything to smooth out the surface? I'd be concerned that the typical 3D printed texture would be a pain to keep clean long term.

No, I kept the surface as is. I don't mind coralline growing on my racks, and that's usually what ends up growing on my racks.

Looks nice may have to try it. What program are you using?

Fusion 360.
