    I made these so i would not have to put my hole arm in the tank every time i wanted to manipulate my frags on the racks. but can be used for many things. Its made of 3/8" Plexiglas strips 1 1/8" wide and 23" long but you could make them as long as you need . I cut them out with a band saw and bent them with a heat gun. ::)
