Questions on frag tank

[Clayjay144]

I'm about to get a frag tank, but unsure which one. I know jbj makes one, that or I can make it, or the only other option I have seen is to take a 40 gallon breeder and modify it. The problem with that is I am wanting to stay around 20-30 gallons. Anyone know of other options?

The only problem with that is you would need to run a sump, and where this tank is going is on a granite countertop

Depending on how much you are willing to spend there are some great custom tank manufacturing company's out there.. I'm thinking about having a local company that I deal with make me a custom all in one nano frag tank probably about 20-25 gallons. Check the vender section of the forums for tank builders

FWIW 36'' is a must if you plan on keeping a sump with an ato in stand. Anything shorter won't work.

And I know there is a section for this but since we are on the topic of it what lights would you guys put over a tank of this size?

I'm using a Nuvo 20G tank for my frag tank. Built well and the rear chamber keeps allot of equipment out of the display area.

I'm happy with my Advanced Acrylics frag tank. Mine is 20x24x8 designed to use a sump, but they have "all in one" frag tanks too. If you don't see the dimensions you want, drop them an email as they can make other sizes too.

Isn't that a little deep of a tank for frags, any pictures?

It's not real deep, 24” x15”x13”. Gives me enough room for tall frags and good spread with the 420R I'm using for light.
