Hate it when they fall somewhere in the tank!

I too hate losing frags in the tank...I've got a frag of strawberry wines somewhere in my 58

 

[Pufferpunk]

LOL, we could start a topless WC club (no men allowed!).

 

[Zeppelin]

Its OK, I dont want to be in the club. I'd just like 'view only' privileges.

I lost this and just found a bare rock

One good thing about barebottom tanks is when a frag falls it just gets blown to the front by the flow.

I was going to make some comments based on the above but I'd rather not get kicked out of here.........

I'm so glad you "went there" first Puffer. :angel1: My hubby thinks he is the luckiest man in the world cuz he has a wifey that is into tanks AND works on them topless. "Not only does she do water changes, she does them topless...." :drool:

Nice to know others out there do the same. My husband doesn't mind either when I have to do tank maintenance. lol

 

[vetteman]

Ok I can't take it anymore

:nopic:

 

[Randy]

BTW:We are hiring water changers but don't tell Maggie.J/K
I do it top less all the time.

I lost 2 sps colonies due to this.

 

[Reefwifey]

Randy, how did you lose 2 colonies by working topless? I'm always afraid of that because i use lotions, sprays, etc. I was my hands and arms the best I can before hand, and then after. And then salt water...makes me want to re-lotion afterwards....and THEN I noticed something feel, ARG!

 

[Pufferpunk]

W/9 tanks, I never lotion my right arm.

I always hated buying frags and losing them in the cracks. When I started making the rocks for my tank I started to think about ways to avoid that.

I came up with what became named the frag station. I wanted a place I could use to aclimate corals or grow out frags until I could sell or trade them. I don't like the look of egg crate and I think these work pretty good.
Not everybody can afford or wants to keep a frag tank. With the frag station you can have a mini coral farm in your main tank with it fitting right into your rock structure or at the bottom of your tank.


Here are mine for my big tank. I plan on only buying frags for the tank. Once I have enough livestock I am going to mount my zoanthid colonies to them and let them encrust over plugs so I can continually be making frags without reducing the size of the colony.

I made a lot of these for guys on zoosrus.com when it was still a site. I always figured if it saved one frag from falling into the rocks it pays for itself the first time you use it.

Just a heads up. I do not sell the frag stations anymore. But I do make them for an online vendor and he has a bunch in stock.

Many of you already use the plugs that were designed to be used with the frag stations. Larry at Edens Gate Corals sells the plugs and is a sponsor on this site.

PM me if you want to know the vendor that carries the frag stations.

Did you ever build my custom frag station?

 

[gooch]

Vetteman, sent you a PM. No, I do not make custom frag stations.
