DYI Shroom/ Leather frag cage

[DYIguy]

I bought the material when I needed to rehome a fish in order to divide the tank and not remove all the rock- I got it at Walmart in the sewing aisle- comes in sheets and I think it also is available with larger holes. the beauty of it is you can also use it for a'time out' for fish- just cut to size and connect with zip ties

HA. I have that plastic mesh as well and made square cages out of it.

Sometimes we don't hink about simple solutions and spend much more on Amazom

Individual cages are fine if you have the space- I don't, so I got out the old frag rack ( a piece of acrylic with a 90 degree bend) and zip tied the mesh to it, filled the bottom with rubble and cut 3 pieces so far of leathers- brown and greeen devils' hand and a finger leather- the sinularia and nepthia are next- I had terrible results using rubber bands with leathers- why I made the cage higher- we'll see
