Lightbulb ACRYLIC AQUASCAPING RODS - Prevent collapses and avalanches!

Aquascaping Rod is used to build strong, stable rock-scapes by drilling into two pieces of rock and using the rod as a connector/support, which helps prevent avalanches and potentially glass cracking collapses.

1/4" Rod is suitable for nano tanks and smaller rock structures in tanks under 40 gallons.

3/8" Rod is our go-to general purpose rod for all rock and tank sizes. Get this one if you're not sure what you need.

1/2" Rod is for larger tanks that need unbreakable stability for serious rock structures! Of course, it can be used in any sized tank for added rock-scape stability.


Sold in 24" lengths.







Works great with our Pukani Dry Live Rock!

If you have a source for the acrylic rods in fluorescent colours I'd be all over it?! Looked into it a while ago and could only find them in the UK, just a thought

And thanks for the PM as well Elliott. I would prefer to buy for the Canadain company you sent me but it looks like they are a wholesale supplier only

It looks like you have very competetive the prices on the clear rods after doing some research... Nice job on the website, I look forward to placing an order from you in the near future

You are most welcome! and thank you! We're pretty proud of the website.
I'll do some shopping around this week and see if I can't find a Canadian source for you.

Apologies as I wasn't paying attention before I posted... Didn't mean to cause Big Reef any grief. If they can get access to this by all means buy from our sponsors. Always tougher for us Canadians to get at stuff.

Hey Tony, thanks for the above! But don't sweat it, if we don't have it in, we always try to direct our customers to someone that does. It is harder to get stuff in Canada, thats exactly why we're in business! We're hoping to solve that problem and make life easier for you guys! So if there is something you're after and can't find, let us know and we'll get working on it!
