Legs For My Power Compact

BrooklynsReefMan1 · 02-22-2008, 12:11 AM

those little plastic legs on my pc cracked so i just had the light resting on the eggcrate top and it made 1 inch of water ivaporate in 8 hours! so i got 2 vhs movies and i put 1 on each side L and R and its stable but ugly

so i thought if i got 4 little pieces of 2x4 andput one on each corner of the light and put mirrors on the 2x4 it would reflect light that was lost back into the tank....

Good idea or waist of money?

Why don't you get new legs? Post a pic of light because I have 2 extra legs that might fit.

Use the acrylic glue and paste the legs back together. once it dries as good as new and will support the weight.
