I think the duct tape adds a certain classiness to it :lol:

Tin foil
 
I use tinfoil as well for the reflecter on my canopy door.

My padding on my cleaning magnet came off so I have it inside the silk case that Okleys sunglasses come in so it doesn't scrach the out side of the tank.

A margerine container ( upside down ) in my sump as a stand for my Mag 18 skimmer pump :eek:

Padding started to come off of my magnet too. Use an old dish cloth wrapped around the outside magnet. Doesn't scratch my glass either.

Also use Lego INSIDE my tanks. Have Hagen 802s and have put Lego between the 802 holders and the back glass so the PHs are perpendicular to the water's surface. Gotta love that Lego :cool:

Why ghetto equipment?
 
Why not just post pics of your ghetto reefs? Mine has some ghetto features and is pretty much a ghetto reef!

1) My surge tank. Toilet hardware and a fancy 2 dollar bucket.

2) My moon light system. A string of christmas tree lights across the top of the tank with only one blue bulb in it. I scratched off some of the blue film on the bulb to give a nice blue-white moonlight effect.
