    Default Agracrete frag mounts

    Does anyone out there know where I can buy agracrete frag mounts? I know I have seen them out there. I am looking for both two types, the kind that will fit into plastic gridwork and the flat round ones. Any help would be appreciated.

    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    Since I've had great success with my agrocrete rocks, I actually tried to make plugs using those sheets of that green floral foam for a form.... They actually looked great, if only I hadn't varied from my recipe I would have5-6 dozen of each, instead I ended up with a big pile of sand. One of these days I'll give it a go again, but this time do it right!

    I was going to try to make a silicon rubber mold of a couple dozen of them but I just found a supplier on the east coast that sells the plugs and disks for so cheap that I don't think I can make them myself for less when you factor in the time. Now what will I do with a 94 pound bag of portland cement? I am sure I can figure something out to do with it, maybe some of those craggy rocks they make on GARF.
    Happy Reefing!

    Well if you've found a cheap supplier share it with the rest of us! hee hee that one site I posted was the first to pop up on Google, $.50 a pop seemed awfully high to me, but haven't seen them advertised much cheaper, that's why a $10 investment in materials seemed well worth it.

    But making your own rock is really pretty cool. My first couple batches have been in the tank for around a year or so now and can't tell the difference between the handmade and other LR, except for some of the cool shapes/caves and stuff I made. Next on the hit list is to make some huge shelf rocks.

    If anyone is interested in some mounts I am going to be getting 100 plugs and 50 disks. I can add another 150 mounts to the order if others want some. Price per plug is .32 and that includes the shipping to my house.
    PM me if interested.
