Has anyone done a 10g (20”x10”x12”) frag tank? I’ve got a couple tanks just sitting around that I’m trying to find a use for. Also curious on using a 15g (24”x12”x12”) as a frag tank. I’m assuming if I did this a tiered frag rack would be the best?
 
I have a 5 gallon frag tank plumbed into my main system. . . the space is pretty limiting but better than nothing. Most frags are on tiles on the floor, but I have 2 magnetic racks on the sides of the tank. . . IM (I think) also makes a pretty cool expandable rack I though about buying!

Kindof. I have a 10g that started life as a qt tank and has kinda morphed I to an experiment/utility tank. I recently put a Gen 3 xr30 radion over it and am experimenting with that. Have a couple frags and a breeding colony of mollies in it. Also currently housing my wife's michaels pistol shrimp and a royal gramma that's in observation before going into my main tank.

I like this. How did you do the plumbing? Is it plumbed into your main display?
