Hi all, time to build a Frag Tank!
But first - I never really properly introduced myself and my journey on r2r before,
and I figured it would be a great opportunity to do so now, in my first build thread.
It is quite long though, so if you wish to skip to the current build thread details, start...
Hey everyone! I have just started to put frags in my frag tank and looking to add a couple fish for pest control and any algae. The tank is only 9" tall and I've already had a wrasse jump the coup. I do have a blenny in there that seems to be calm and not want to fly. Any suggestions for...
Hey guys. I'm building a basement sump for new 225 gallon tank. I'm adding a frag tank shortly and need help on how to plumb it into the sump. The frag tank stand is to the right in the picture so it's really close.
1. I was thinking the best way was to either add a T with valve right after the...

I originally posted in DIY, and I'm now trying to figure out plumbing sizing coming from a single return pump. I was going to T off from my return pump (COR-15) to fit 3/4" line to my display and 1/2" to my frag tank.
Is there any negligible difference if I T off with a 3/4" connector vs...

Thinking of Melanurus Wrasse but looking at other...
