Where do you guys get your egg crates from?

Get the white 2x4 at Lowe’s. Like the black better but $$. Bulk reef supply has the black in 2x2 I think.

Thanks Humphrey. I am assuming Lowe’s light diffusers? There’s no bad byproducts in the plastic from those are there?

The black looks a lot better.

Definitely Lazy's for the black egg crate, but the Lowes/HD/Menards light diffuser and a can of Krylon Fusion if you want a really wild look!  ;D  Give the Krylon a day+ to dry and it's rock hard and aquarium safe.
