A:Â It can be painted. Primer can be used and any kind of paint. It will chip later if normal paint is used so I recommend spray painting it. It is made of durable plastic.

Q:How do I cut these Plaskolite plastic eggcrate panels to a smaller size? What tool is needed for it?
by|Aug 24, 2021

Answer This Question
A:Â There is a short video in the product description where they go over how to cut the various plastic panels sold by Plaskolite. It looks like all you need are some wire cutters (I usually call them angle cutters) and just hold them so the blade is perpendicular to the edge so you get a nice vertical cut.

A:Â Easier way. Stand panel on edge. Insert larger barrel screwdriver thru top cell past desired edge. Tap end of screwdriver with hammer. Tap all the way to bottom. Cut top/bottom edges w/cutter.

Fish tank safe.
Easy to cut to size. I use it to separate agressive fish from each other in one of my aquariums.

THE ONLY AQUARIUM BASKING PLATFORM FOR LARGE TURTLES
There's only one large commercial basking Platform that works and it's made for ponds, it also takes away a lot of real estate inside of the tank and on top of that, it requires an anchor. So eggrate after all is said and done, after hours of research, comes in at the top of the list, with basically no other competitors in the race for best Basking Dock for large and wide turtles. If you have a 9 inch+ slider or shell buddy, this will end up being your only and best option. Not Only Is it the best option, it's the most customizable option on top of that, just use your imagination and this will end up being the most luxurious piece of your turtles tank, for you and the turtle. I recommend buying a whole lot of cheap zip ties, you're going to need them.

This item was a perfect fit for my light fixture in my rental home. However, the location of the item was really not where I felt it should be. It was located no where near the lighting section. It was located in the lumber section on the "bottom" shelf and most of them were broken on the edges and other areas. I was fortune to get the only (2) that were not broken. I feel the item should be relocated to the lighting section to get more visibility and perhaps not get damaged in the lumber section.

Worked great as DIY Aquarium divider!
I needed a divider to keep 2 larger fish apart since one was harassing the other BUT I also wanted to allow all the other fish to go through as they pleased AND I didn't want to spend a lot. This is working great! I cut to size with regular diagonal cutting pliers (a few mm wider than I needed to "wedge" solidly in place) , cut openings the right size for the smaller fish and then sanded the cut edges smooth and rinsed (to remove the dust) - was installed in no time at all :-)

Fits Needed Purpose Perfectly
The Egg Crate works perfectly for the application that I use it for. I raise and breed aquatic turtles and use the crates to build basking platforms in my ponds and also to make tank toppers for the hatchling tanks. The crate is easy to cut down to smaller sizes for different projects.

Professional Look
These ceiling panels give our office a professional updated look. We replaced them from our old worn out flat panels that had yellowed in color. These are nice and bright. They were easy to install as we had one of our employees 16 year old son do all the installation and it only took him 5 minutes to do just one (although he replaced 60 of them)!

Had to replace current panel. I had to use an old piece as well to supplement. Perhaps my panel opening is non-standard.
