frag tank

I don't have enough time to keep up the frag tank anymore, so selling it. Tank was a custom build from Advanced Acrylic. 3/4" thick. Tank dimensions - 60"L x 24"W x 12"H. Custom stand that was built for the tank. Skinned with reclaimed wood. Sump is an acrylic by Synergy reef. Asking $1,200...

Does anyone have any experience with or links to build threads using a tank from Advanced Acrylics? I'm looking at one of their frag tanks, specifically this one in the 24x24x8 configuration.

I'm thinking of expanding my frag tank, however my wife has ruled out anything else in the house. I'm thinking of using one bay of our 3 car garage to install a 5 x 9 grow tent and put the frag tank and accessories inside. I live in Arizona so in the summer I will need to install a small AC...

I see this is a common tank used by many. I am looking to set up the 80g 48x24x16 version. Where do most buy them from? I see Amazon has them, but an odd description is listed so I am not 100% sure on that... but that is cheaper than the other site I saw them on. Any other options for a cheaper...

Hey everyone, I am thinking of starting a small frag tank soon and I am asking for some tips. First off, I am debating whether to buy a 20 gallon long tank or custom build one to be able to hold more coral. What do you guys think? So far, here is the plan: 20 gallon long tank (or custom built...

Hello Internet, I'm moving the sump and 40g frag tank for my 120g system (closer to 180g all in with sump and frag tank attached). The DT is plumbed through the wall and I've done the measurements should have no issue with the sump holding the tank and frag water during WC or power outages, was...

Hello fellow reefers!!! (Have I mentioned how much I love this place? You all are amazing! Keep doing you!) So we all know we start one aquarium and then just need more/bigger after that. Well I have since convinced my boyfriend to all me to setup a frag tank! I am hoping to frag all coral...

Looking for a small (less than 40 gallons) frag tank or nano tank. Would prefer entire setup (skimmer, stand). Located in Chicago.

Hello, So I am going to try to track this build on this thread. I recently found a good deal on a used set up which I think needs a little TLC and it needs a few other things as well. This is my first frag tank and it will be a long process before it is up and running simply because I have to...

It seems that a coral frag tank and a coral/ invert quarantine tank are very similar. There aren't any meds used in a coral/invert QT, so aren't they the same thing? If I'm missing something here, let me know! I was going to setup a 20g long coral/invert QT and thought I might just keep it...

Thinking of building a glass frag tank to be locat ed in my basement, which stays about 62 in the w8nter and 75 in the summer. Was considering using low e glass panels to keep heat in. Has anyone used low e glass for their aquarium? Pros and cons?

I wanted a bigger frag tank since my small one was getting crowded . I researched frag tanks and found a couple of posts on differnt sites about this frag tank called a low boy by zoo med . I researched and researched and everyone I found a site that sold them had a disclaimer that they do not...

So I decided to join in, never got around to posting my build for my main tank so I will do one for my frag tank. Decided to do this tank separate from my main system. Had a small crash on the main tank so decided this would be a good way to backup some of my pieces and a way to try things...

hey guys! So I'm going to set up a 50 gal low boy as a frag tank and I was wondering when I'd be able to start putting in frags. I'm going to cycle it with live rock in the sump and leave it bare bottom to make it easier for maintence. My main concern is if i can put sps frags after it cycles...

Hey all, I was wondering if it was plausible to setup a small frag tank for my office (20-40 g). I have an established reef tank at home, but would like something fun and pretty in my home office. It would only have softies and easy LPS. I have some basic questions. 1) What would you consider...

Where can I get decent sized frag tanks. I have been using a couple of hydroponics troughs but they are a pain and they are white and attract algae. Is there a better solution. I am not looking for great looking tanks as I am using them in a propagation room only and don't really have...

Hello all, I am looking for an all-in-one frag tank somewhere around 16x16 would be good. I only have space for 16 in. but length could be larger. Thanks

So I need some input on lighting a new frag tank I am setting up. Dimensions are 36 x 24 x 12. It will be a stand alone system. I currently have 6x80 watt ati t5 on my 190 display so wanted to stick to t5. I was looking at some coralife fixtures, 2 x 39 watt, 36 inch fixtures. Any thoughts or...

**Updated! More Items Added! Hi, my name is Seth and I've decided to get out of hobby. My wife and I are having another baby and I just don't have the time to properly care for my tanks anymore. I'm not listing everything because I still have a tank going, but I am listing a couple things as I...

I am in the process of planning/building my 210 gallon peninsula tank that will have a remote fish room "man cave". In the fish room I would like to have two frag tanks. 1 that will be tied in to the main system for grow out and the second would be a stand alone system for fragments of my...

So for my birthday today, my wife, at midnight gave me some gifts. A Denver Broncos hat... Ralph Lauren shirt... some candy and an Amazon gift card... Then in a little bag she handed me an edited receipt for a frag tank. Woo Hoo! That will make my third tank and lets just say she's not a...

I am thinking about using my 150 watt metal halide light as my only source of light for my 30 gal frag tank. I have it hanging about 24" above the tank. Temp is good. I have been running it for an hour a day (during the peak of my light cycle) for 2 weeks now with no issues. MY main lights...

Whoo hoo!!! I just noticed the good old purple stuff growing on my tank. Tank is a 4 month old, 29 gallon frag tank with a few fish in there. I didn't add any additives to make it grow or anything special at all. A lot of the frags I purchased had some form of coraline on the plugs, so I'm...
