Hello all!
I've had my 180 gallon aquarium up & running for ~ 4 years now & I've been trimming SPS out of it for a long time & I'm running out of room. I recently setup a used 120g & connected it to the 180g that is now growing a bunch of Battle corals.
Since posting on Instagram - I've received a lot of requests for corals for sale. But I need more room! So, I recently stumbled upon a 60" x 40" x 18" PVC tank that would be a great frag tank!

Welcome to R2R!!!
Thanks!
I have this MRC Orca Pro 2 skimmer just lying around..... I think it'll fit the bill nicely.
Debating about a sump & return pump. I have a "spare" 180g acrylic tank I acquired; but I think I'd rather use that for a display / holding tank than a sump. Maybe a 55 gallon or 75 gallon glass tank? Perhaps a rubbermaid 100g stock tank.
Home Depot has a 55 gallon tough storage tote that would work also.
And I have a Reeflo Dart I could use as a return; thinking I'd have to throttle it back though. Or a EcoPlus 1257. I think the dart uses less power though.
