They look nice, and comparable in price to the diys

Kind of expensive when you think about it.....

These are more expensive, but the nicest looking frag rack I've seen:

the diy mag racks use a &gt;$8 mag float, and if you dont have any already a sheet of light diffuser and super glue. I'm sure that plus the labor (at your current hourly rate) is more than the $18 acrylic...

too true. I'm surprised it doesn't offer to purchase more (couldn't cost that much?)

I would be concerned about detritus buildup on that plastic thing...

That's why I opted for the one I posted and threw the other one out. The clear acrylic gets pretty ugly in a matter on days...

 

[lilrobb]

But where can you get it?

 

[mvm]

blackrockreef.com

Found em,

pretty darn fancy - you said you had one? How do the magnets hold up?

Like super glue. In fact, there are so strong, I couldn't put them on the same side as my vortec because the magnets were interfearing...

 

[lilrobb]

WOW!

That would be a true advantage over the puny MagFloat M magnets - my rack is moving about an inch a day due to water movement

i also have the rack from blackrockreef and i love it!! i do however find the corner one listed on the original post here interesting

Matt, I liked the look of yours, but will they hold ORA plugs?

 

[mvm]

Yep, got 3 in there now.

I also have a larger blackrock reef frag rack, the magnets on this beast are insane, i had 2 get stuck together and they are nearly impossible to seperate without completely dry hands. Awesome frag rack mine is almost purple now though lol

Guess I need to order one, that was my only fear.
