Looking for a few pieces of egg crate to put beneath my rock islands in the 83gal upgrade. Probably like 8"x8" or 10"x10" for each island. Anyone have some?

If you don't find any close to you I have some you could have. It is usually in stock at home depot as well. Check in the lighting department as it is sold as lighting diffuser for drop celing florecent light fixtures.

They only have white but it is cheap like $20 for 24" x 48" piece I use diagonal cutters to cut it. It's a bit tedius but it works.

Just saw that. $20 isn't that much but still seems like a lot just to prop up a few rocks in the sand.

Anyone want a toadstool or an RBTA for some egg crate? Also have a decent amount of Caulerpa peltata.

Ended up getting the Home Depot egg crate. 4'x2' gives me loads of extra if I ever do a rescape or something.

I have a lot of extra laying around too. It comes in handy. You can make frag racks, sump dividers, skimmer stands, jump screens, fish traps, etc. I find new uses for it every now and then.

I say just get it at Home Depot. Whatever you don't use, just put it away in the garage. You will at some point, use more of it.
