Just wondering if anybody has any information reguarding these. I need one for my 20 gallon tank but wasn't really sure how to go about building one. If you have any firsthand experience with these that would be great, if not, maybe you can point me in the right direction. Thanks. :)

I've made them out of eggcrate and acrylic sheet. I liked the eggcrate better for flow reasons. Just glued a piece the size I wanted to an old magfloat.

Eggcrate + Mag Float, + Superglue. Simple and effective. I have done it more than once. Keep it simple!

Thank you both for the feedback. I didn't have an extra mag float lying around but it did get me thinking. I oakey rigged this small frag rack out of the top half of an Aquaclear powerfilter and a worm feeder. Not too shabby. :) Thanks again.

My frag rack is with the mag float. I literally tied the egg crate onto the magfloat using a strip of plastic you can purchase at home depot. Works surprisingly well and is much cheaper!
