Electric fence or miniature land mines for frag racks!

[capthutch]

Anybody have a DIY plan for an electric fence or some small land mines! I wanna keep the Bulldozers (Turbo's) off my frag racks!

You could try an egg-crate wall around them. On the top, cut the edges so you have the vertical pieces but not the horizontal one. Kinda ends up like spikes. That should do the trick.

Maybe that and some "razor wire" around the edge!

You could suspend the racks with fishing line attached to the corners of the tank (I think command adhesive picture hooks will adhere to the outside of glass & acrylic without leaving marks).

True you'd need to leave about a 2-3" gap on the inside (and thus lose that real estate for frags) to prevent them from scaling onto the rack from the tank walls, but it should work.

Turbos and frags just don't mix

i take to long copper wires.. put one wire in one side of the outlet and one in the other... stretch them up and over the edge of the tank and tie them on the frag rack... .i haven't seen any snails in a while

You could try and pour some salt on them!

If nothing else works, I've got some bottle rockets and a bottle of whiskey?

I put a small neon sign in the middle of each frag. "Joe's Escargot Bistro".

Go on...

They are defiantly a pain! Thanks for all the suggestions! I wish I could rig spring traps and fling em off! One got on the rotating return line in my nano and rode that sucker for over 6 hrs! Gotta see if I still have that video......
