Grow out tanks/remote sumps

[evoIX_Reefer]

I will be going through a home addition whenever my town stops messing around and approves it.

Shortly thereafter, a massive upgrade will occur.

Looking to go as big as the space allows it for the display but even better, I plan to do a remote sump, growout tanks and separate system for hospital, chaeto/refugium and a anemone tank with a group of clowns.

Looking for inspiration, advice on huge setups and would you use something like the lowboy frag tank or rubbermaid stock tanks.

Hello!
Once your home addition is approved, your planned upgrade sounds impressive. For large setups, Rubbermaid stock tanks are great for sump, refugium, or growout due to durability and cost, while lowboy frag tanks offer sleek access for display or coral work. Isolate hospital and anemone systems, use strong filtration, and MyFordBenefits website plan plumbing and electrical early for long-term ease.

For sumps and grow out tanks use whatever will fit your needs. Here's a video of one of my setups using custom refuguims along with heavy duty totes for cryptic refugiums (FYI most totes are too flimsy to safely use especially as totes get brittle as they age).
