frag tank

I'll be connecting my 235 to my frag/qt tank this weekend and now I'm wondering about a few things. I'll be doing 3.5gals auto-water change every day. That water will go to the frag tank. It will primarily be for cuttings and new arrivals but I didn't want it to circulate back to the DT just in...

So I’m setting up frag tanks in the basement, I’ve never plumbed a tank before. The idea is to have a 100 gallon stock tank as the sump underneath, two 50 gallon stock tanks up top each receiving flow from the return pump (the return will have a y and two controllable valves to make sure I can...

To me it seems like it can go either way. If you have a sand bed for your frag tank you need something in there sifting it. In addition you have increased media for stability and filtration If you have a bare bottom you in theory don't need anything or just a minor cuc. I want to see what...

Hi all! New guy to Reef2reef after reading posts for a while and now looking for some advice. I’m planning to plumb a 20–40 gallon frag tank into my existing display. Due to my room layout, the frag tank will be in the room directly behind the display, with plumbing running through a shared...

I wanted to start a thread with my latest projects. Display upgrade I recently upgraded my 75 gallon tank to an innovative marine 170 ext. The 60 x 30 footprint fit my location perfectly. I ordered the tank in August expecting to get it 4-6 months. After around a week I received an email...

Recently put an xr30 g5 blue on an AIO 24g 24x24x8. Along with this change I had a bit of a separate crash in parameters due to a shipment of unhealthy corals and nems but even before my parameters went out of whack it seemed that going ab+ at more than 20 percent was causing polyps to recede...

Well, I decided I’m going to redo my display tank and get away from softies and do LPS dominant. But before I can do that I obviously “needed” a place to store the various softies I pull out. Hence the “need” to build a new tank. This may not be an ideal build or setup, but I pieced it together...

Just now cleaning and setting up and all-in-one frag tank and can't decide what my plans are for flow. I'll likely be starting with LPS and softies as that's just what I have on hand but have been debating whether to go with a gyre or more traditional powerhead. From my experience, gyres create...
