dante411x August 2, 2014 Share August 2, 2014 I just always find this hilarious: Note the prominent "23 pcs" on the top. 23 piece tool set. Open the set: There's tweezers - 1 piece Scissors - 1 piece Forceps - 1 piece Clamps - 1 piece Coral glue - 1 piece Frag plugs - 18 pieces Total of 23 pieces. Out of these, 4 are permanent Note that this costs $100 Also note that it's on sale now and actually worth getting. All that making fun of it... German steel medical tools are not cheap.

dante411x August 2, 2014 Author Share August 2, 2014 Actually it's 24 pieces. It comes with an awesome sticker. I'd trade 5 of these plugs for one if these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctenophore August 4, 2014 Share August 4, 2014 I saw the sale and thought whether or not some high quality German bone cutters would be worthwhile and not rust. I have regular old Pakistani bone cutters that I got around 1998 which are pitted and rusted pretty badly. But they still work as perfectly as the day I got them, except when I have to open & close them a few times underwater to free up the rusty joint. I think after 16 years of use, I may just stick with them. I'd be afraid to use something like the ecotech kit, at least until the first few rust spots appeared.

Keraxis August 6, 2014 Share August 6, 2014 I ve also wondered about this since their on sale for 50% off. Is the price worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante411x August 6, 2014 Author Share August 6, 2014 Chive on! For 50% off? Yes. Each of the 4 tools is worth about $15-20 separately online. Of course you can get the throw away surgical tools for next to nothing, but keep in mind that those are designed to be used once. Frag plugs and glue... Well. I don't have eggcrate frag racks, so I'm not as excited about those. But they look pretty nice for those who do. Glue is glue. It's a big bottle. Probably $5+ in store for that much glue. And the box is actually nice. The best part about it is that I can leave the tools out (in the box of course) and since the box is so well made, I can leave it out and not get yelled at for leaving fish stuff everywhere.

Keraxis August 6, 2014 Share August 6, 2014 I love the box. The cutters are important. I prefer the rock frag plugs thought. Look better when it actually goes into your DT. My wife would still yell at me for leaving it out....... She is the key to my fish tank happiness.... she can tell me No more and set a time limit. I am currently on a time limit now before I can buy again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minaimee August 7, 2014 Share August 7, 2014 The price is pretty good on these. I been looking around for a good set and jumped on these right away. Wish they have the reef link on sale without it being an add on. Anyone getting a pump or lights and already have a reeflink. Please let me know. I have a few frags on the rack to let you choose from. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
