80 gal.. so my plan is to make a self contained unit.. refugium on one side. aquarium on the other, for fish/frags, etc. basically i would put the main baffle about in the middle, and then from there the rest.. all i would need is a return pump and a skimmer. the t5 lights would fit just over the fish/frag side. then the top would be made into my bar for my apartment..

thoughts, go!

Yea it does sound like a really cool idea. I like looking at my refugium, theres alot of life in there! lol Theres some really cool macros out there.

I'm thinking of same thing on a larger scale ! The tank would actually be partly in a closet/ fish room where equipment etc .. Would be hidden
No need for return pump ! Think it would be alot cheaper and wouldn't worry about flood as much ! Would also have sure devise !

This will be cool. I think there might be company's that sell kits just like this. You could get ideas from them or just buy one.
