nanoty Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 (edited) Since we have a FTS thread that is a sticky, why not a frag tank FTS thread? Same rules, no chatting, just one or two pics, tank discription and a link to your build thread if you have one. Edit your post with new pics as needed. Mines not up yet, who wants to start?

glennr1978 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 This is where I intend to place and grow out frags....seriously. I just wanted something that was a little nicer to look at than frag racks. Quote Link to comment

gulfsurfer101 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 A work in progress. Just ordered the T5 set up on friday. I think I will actually start a tank thread for this one. Lot's of work to do on this one but It will be frag tank ready in a few weeks. Quote Link to comment
nanoty Posted July 22, 2008 Author Share Posted July 22, 2008 OMG is that a hermit on the bottom right? Did you get that at the beach? Hope your going to do something with that cause he's going to be a bulldozer on frags Quote Link to comment
gulfsurfer101 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I plan on adding an over flow and have got some acrylic to cut for a sump that will fit under that stand and that's where he's gonna go. Most of that stuff is from my AP 24 and is being housed temporarily in this one while I was doing some mods to it. I will get a frag rack going after the sump and lights are installed to keep things off them. I have two monster herms in there. The other is on top of the rocks. They are local and have been in my tanks for about a year and a half now. Quote Link to comment

BibleSue Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) Here's mine. Left to right: 10g ATO tank dumps into 20H sump with SeaClone Skimmer, connected to 30L via 2 U-tubes. I have a small 10K Coralife Lite over the sump, next comes a 150W 10K MH & a 250W 14K MH light over the prop tank. On the counter on the right is my 10g QT tank with an AquaClear 70 filter/sump & a 50/50 PC light. Note the antique stove is still a very real part of the system.

nanoty Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 Well done, I am thinking about a 75g frag tank and using my 30g as a sump. Did you paint the eggcrate or buy it black? Quote Link to comment
