I'm trying to think ahead to what I might need/want for an upcoming expansion of a frag tank to my system. I plan to plumb it into my display so I'm wondering do I really need additional probes for the frag tank, or would the readings in the display be good enough since it's all one system?
I've currently got the P4 Ultimate with an additional power bar. This should be enough to control any equipment, mostly lighting, for the frag tank.
I suppose my biggest concern is temp control/monitoring with the additonal water volume. The tank is a 150g with 2x 300w heaters in the sump. The frag tank will likely be a 60g, so that much additional volume. Am I going to want to monitor temp in the frag tank or rely solely on the shared sump?
I have had a frag tank plumbed in before on a previous build but it wasn't as big of volume as this will be.
Anyone with experience of something similar?
