I see a frag tank in my future. I know have aquired a 24x24x18 acrylic cube and I have a Lumen Bright Reflector with 400watt reflux 12k bulb and dimmable ballast. WO WO

[RyanG]

So you going to plumb that into your main tank?

[WILLIAM1]

I dont think so! Idont have enough room newr my DT to plunb them together. I will post some pics in the next couple of days...I have to buff out the front piece of plexi first and aquire a few more items still before..

[Jason L]

nice good luck keep me in mind when your frags are ready to go
looking for those hard to get SPS! lol... Good luck

Thats gonna be sweet! I've been thinking about starting up a frag tank seems like a smart move to take financially lol

[WILLIAM1]

I am very patient about geting the things I want.. Mostly used to save money of coarse... I still need some sort of filter, skimmer, PH's Build a stand. But it should work out great.. I little larger than I wanted but thats ok. Just have to find a spotin my house for the new tank...

here is one that I set up at work 120 gal.

[prototypep2p]

just started getting really nice sps from tonga and some sweet tyree LE frags

[WILLIAM1]

Mine is nowhere as nice as that and its only 40 gallons 18" high 24x24 a little higher than I wanted to have but for free who cares my light should not have any problem..I am going to do a little work to the tank and I will update everything I do for everyone. Probly start it in a couple weeks and get the tank preped and then build a stand....

[allykay]

would you be swapping out grown frags into your main tank?

[WILLIAM1]

So here are a couple of photos I just started the canopy today still have to put some skin on it and some trim but a start is a start. You can see the scratches in the front panel of plexi but they are minumum I have to pick up a scratch remover kit for that. I am going to intall a closed loop system and have 2 returns on each side for water flow and the return from the refugium on the back and a refugium/skimmer under the tank in the stand.

Mostley gonna be looking for hard to find frags and Acan lords.

[WILLIAM1]

Heres a couple updated pics from the stand glad I had leftover wood from a past project it worked out perfect. Had my little helper my daughter....

[Mr_X]

nice job!
speaking of frag tanks, i'd like to pose a question to the people who don't have their frag/prop tanks plumbed into their main displays-

what do you use to hold bacteria?


i have my prop/frag tank connected to it's own sump with 50 pounds of live rock.

[WILLIAM1]

Im gonna have a small refugium under the tank Im trying to utilize the little bit of space that I have. Refugium, skimmer, uv, phosban reactor, ato...

[Blackjacktang]

Nice frag tank!

[WILLIAM1]

Do to the issue I am having in my DT I have really been trying to finish the frag tank. I ended up up fragging my big M Cap and lost another coral. So there has not been any movement with coral lately. So heres the update on the frag tank.
