I've been wanting to integrate or sort of modular tank to separate multiple tanks that can inhibit different types of fish but be able for the fish to move from tank to tank.
Say WHAT?
Somewhat like JonnyJ's tank but add a bridge for the fish to cross into the different sections.
If you have a creative and artistic mind, imagine the following from left to right:
Shallow reef/mandarins [24 x 24 x 14]
shallow reef that will hold your frags low flow for mandarins etc then a glass almost resembling a BRIDGE that the fish can swim through to get to your second section
Your main display [48 x 24/36 x 24]
This will be your show case where you can keep your tangs, angels etc. Huge reef!
Seahorse/macro/etc [24 x 24 x 14]
This would be your seahorse section with your macros and pipefish etc.
You will set your initial section and main display with one huge sump but your last section you would need to control the flow more and utilize it's independant chiller and sump to keep the water tempature down. just like an airconditioner in a room though the door is open it would still be cooler in the room. Obviously may cause the need for a higher powered chiller than normal.
This to me would be the ultimate tank besides being rimless with starfire front to make it really POP.
I'm sure this would cost me a pretty penny. Someday this dream will become reality and I will bump this thread!!
Please feel free to add because ideas like this help others.
