Frag Tank Tie-in Ideas

[Tiki Reef Joshua]

Ok.... 100 gallon (4’x2’) display with a 30 gallon sump.... standard Herbie configuration. Vectra M1 return pump. I want to tie in a frag tank in the opposite corner of my room. I do have the ability to run piping through the floor to the basement as it has an unfinished ceiling in that area.... before you ask, not interested in a separate system. I’m totally aware of the pros and cons for each.

So.... how would you do it. You can look at my build thread for some pics even though they are a bit old.

mahalo!

Very carefully! ;Hilarious

Seriously, be careful about how you do this and add back ups to drains. Consider float valves or water level sensors to shut off pumps if the tank level gets too high.
