New Crabitats

[TheLilMommaB]

Do the zip ties go right thew the weed block or do I have to cut holes first? I would have never thought about the extra space the zip ties take and prolly would have had to redo the whole thing I'll be picking up some of that lace stuff too now can't wait to get started but things came up last week as they normally do and the new tanks had to go back burner for a bit but as long as everything stay running like it's supposed to they will be worked on next week

I just forced them through. It is a pain in the butt. I think cutting holes would make it less sturdy.

How do I get the pvc to cut straight? I keep ending up a little higher or shorter just before the end :-/ maybe the hacksaw blade is too flimsy

Went out and got a pvc pipe cutter and broke the blade :-/ luckily I have all the short peices cut but not the long corner piece...unless I want it to be 5' long do I have to silicone the pvc pieces to the tank bottom or can I just set them in there and lay the rest across them? I don't think they would move too much with 150# of sand on them

Wow, looking good! I bet the crabs are loving it.
Speaking of crabs, they all very purty.
