Started this DIY project quite long ago as I ran out of space to grow my zoas collection. This design allows me to hang my zoas vertically against the glass. Moreover, the zoas grown on the square bases are removable.
The items needed to do these are:
1) Acrylic sheet
2) Acrylic bolts and nuts
3) 5cm x 5cm Square bases
The links to get them:
1) Acrylic sheet can be purchased from dama or art friend
2) Bolts n nuts

3) Square bases

Here's some pictures. Before and after.
So I asked a favour to help cut out the acrylic pieces shown above and sandwiched the square bases using the bolt and nut. More of a picture frame concept.
All in all, I feel it's a success. However, i personally feel it depends on the type of zoas that you plan to grow as the acrylic is mounted vertically, the lower part will not receive as much light as the top part. Hence, I would not recommend to place zoas with smaller polyps at the bottom nor use micro sized zoas for this project as light is a limiting factor.
