Ok. So little update time.
I found a frag tank and at $100 couldn’t say no. Guy is leak testing it tonight so I am crossing my fingers. If it holds true I’ll be picking up tomorrow.

I’ve decided after talking with @Lost in the Sauce a but I’m going to plumb it into the DT sump. I am also building a large cabinet that will sit right next to my DT. This cabinet will be home for my ato and all the other stuff that comes with the hobby.

I’m gonna work on drawing up some rough sketches of what I’m thinking.


If say the tank doesn’t happen still going to build the cabinet. I need more storage space anyway. And who doesn’t like to build things.

All I got right now is a screen shot of what could possibly be my first frag tank!

Ok why? Explain. I still have the option to set up its own sump
cross contamination between tanks bacteria, parasites, fish disease.
one tank springs a leak while you aren't home and it affects both.
and my dt is plumbed to do what you are thinking about. I capped it off.
side note: I'm currently running my frag tub sumpless.
