cheap and easy DIY cloner and what to do with the results
Aye aye on the great post.
I've read alot about cloning and also noticed about a week ago that many of the cloners people are selling on ebay are basically this cloner (or at least very similar and home made). Glad I finally gathered some real info on it.
As for me inputting anything...
Always use aquarium silicone when dealing with living things, especially if you plan to consume them/it. Regular silicone caulking can outgas for MANY months. Where as aquarium silicone only outgases a few days. Even then the gases are far less harmful. Unless you plan to cure the cloner for say,.. a year!
I also have a suggestion for holding down the airstones. I keep a reef aquarium and buy an epoxy at my local aquarium shops which is completely reef safe, drys under water and has no harmful effects on my corals, clams, shrimp, sea cuccumber or any other thing living in there. It dries VERY quickly and can be used in the running aquarium to glue down live corals, glue rocks together or any other thing (like smuthering an aptasia). It comes in a stick. You cut off the size chunk you will use, mush the inner and outer layers together, then stick it on whatever your sticking it on. I've even used it to make handles on my glass top over eight years ago and it's still there. Being this stuff hardens into basically a rock, you could either epoxy it to the bottom of the bin or just make stone beads to slip over the lines for added weight.
Again great thread,... WHY ISN'T THIS A STICKY??:thumbsup:[align=center]A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.[/align]
