Crystal Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I have a nice DIY background idea for a 20g, but I would prefer to use Black eggcrate instead of white. Nothing worse than bits of white eggcrate peeking through cracks between black rocks... Where in Edmonton would I be able to find black eggcrate? Thanks!

jvision Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 If they only sell by the carton, I'll go in on one - I could probably use 4 or 5 sheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gBOYsc2 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Anyone ever considered the possibility of using krylon fusion spray paint? I have read several places that it is safe for use under water if you let it cure for 10-14 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettaFishMommy Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 krylon, from my research, is perfectly safe for in tank use. but painting egg crate would be a pain in the tookus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cale262 Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Good find...I'll have to drop them a line on Friday... I've painted the white with Krylon and not only is it a PITA but it's time consuming (=more$$$). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 $9ea is less than the white ones cost at HD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
