Another of skene's projects... 30g frag tank..

[skene]

Here is the start of my soon to be started projects. Due to time constraints, this will be a long term project of plumbing into my current system.

I am going to also be acquiring a larger pump due to the more plumbing head I will be having, but that is already lined up.

The stand is taller than expected as well so I will be needing to trim that down to a more user friendly height.

So here she is... in all it's beauty...

Nice bro cant wait to see this in person

 

[skene]

neither can I.... not in the sense of that I don't have it.. but I wanna see it up and running as well. :lol2:

[dubs]

Jealous!

I want to get a frag tank too. I may just build one myself out of acrylic.. Not sure yet..

 

[skene]

one step closer... This will be enough to feed my DT and frag tank...

 

[noelskii]

oh skener! that's not even enough flow for my solana :theyareon :lol2:
i got an idea :idea: for you!

Keep your frag tank mid level (between DT and sump) and let your DT gravity feed it. Have your frag tank's drain go straight into the sump and all you have to do is put a little power head in the Frag tank. :duh:

not gonna happen oh long haired unwise one.. my DT stand isnt tall enough to support a drain like that to the tank. Besides all else... I do not want what comes down the drain off the DT going into the frag tank. nor do i want a frag tank that needs to be plumbed with the drain with loop traps.

ooh nice alternative to upgrading...

 

[skene]

nooooooooooooooooooooooo............. it can't be!!!!

ok yes another update... I decided it'll be LEDs for this tank... gotta try out this stuff you people oh so go nuts over.

Also in case I needed it, I kept around my Koralia 1.... I'm sure you don't need to see what one of those look like... but anyways.. it's in my tank.

Plumbing.... just another step closer.
Would have gotten some of it done, however the HD I went to did not have any unions available.

And just cause the guys at Coral Theory were so awesome today with the locline here is a pic of my rigid tubing.. :lol2:
