Frag Tank Build

[Rhino]

Been considering a frag tank just for something to play with for a little bit. Nothing fancy this is not so much about making money as it is just watching corals grow. Think I am just going to do a 40 breeder, because I like the dimensions. T5 lighting, tunze 9002 skimmer, and a few power heads. Will also put on an ato. Nothing fancy just an easy tank that is functional. I will probably toss in a six line wrasse or clown. Tank will just be LPs and softies I don't care for sps. Never had a frag tank before does this sound like it will work?

Anybody think this setup will work?

Sounds good to me. You going to drill it for a sump?

No not right now just to keep it easy. May later on.

There is a good video on BRS about setting up a frag tank.

Make sure you avoid Tetra 40 breeders if you plan on drilling (Tetra tempers theirs because it is cheaper than thicker glass). Get something like an Aqueon.

Did all petcos switch to tetra? I know mine did.
