This is completley unrelated but since you're in a fairly remote place in Alaska, how do you get reef livestock to you? I live in rural Ontario, in a place around 2 hours from Toronto and most stores have trouble shipping stuff to me?
I’m not as remote as some people up here. I live about a hour north of anchorage. We just watch the weather before shipping as well. Plus the use of the heat packs helps a lot. Some people hear alaska and just say nope we don’t ship there. But it goes to show you how much care tsa puts into it being that far away. They ship here and corals make it just fine.

Wow! That was unexpected. Thank you so much. I’ve already started on my list (and checking it twice) of corals I’m thinking I can’t live without. I’m in trouble cause it’s up to over 20 all ready. going to be a fun weekend.

I hear you Stoney. Really need them. Urchins and Turbo snails are tag teaming grabbing frags and moving them. I never like to talk about removing a bad character from my tank, but one of the urchins had to fly west. He was the worst about liking to make hats out of frags. Last week he had three frags on his back and that was the last straw. May he rest in peace.

I have a few ideas in the works, stateline has some stuff going on and he is helping with getting the mold for the grommets.

I almost need a second printer. :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

I may want to ask you to rebuild both of them all together. When I ask you to make them hang shorter, I over did it. I can only raise the lights to 340 PAR on my top ledge because the frag racks are getting 475 PAR. They need to be about two inches longer so the level/PAR is closer my top rocks where the acros are. We can talk later when I get back in your list of projects. In the picture you can see they are about 3” above the rock level. I thought that would work, but with the diffusers on the lights, they are getting blasted even on the edge of the tank.

Yeah that won't be a problem. Also I could print something to help repurpose those racks. :thinking-face:

Okay. I’ll look at options of other places in the tank. I was thinking of the back corners, but they would get blasted from the return water nozzles. I’ll start looking at places. Also, it I don’t slow down having fun buying corals, there may have to be a frag tank in my future. They could go there.

I was thinking sandwiches...lol

Take hangers off, use the panel, I could print a sheet of TPU, and another PTEG. PTEG/TPU/PTEG
The TPU is semi flexible, so it would be like other locking frack racks and look like this.

I could print a stand for the bottom of the tank, different hangers, or make them into a frag dipping rack, fragging station.

Or.. maybe racks for a frag tank. :thinking-face:
