Anyone else display their fuge? Photos

homebrewdude · 12/20/2007, 03:56 PM

I am thinking of showing off my fuge on my new stand.
I will probably frame it in to only show the fuge part, hide all the other stuff.

My current fuge is rather clean, lots of neat stuff in there.

I've seen one tank on here where the stand was cut away so you could see the fuge, as a display.

I have a 75gal I am going to be using as a sump.
Small portion for the skimmer and small portion for the return section.
I would like to get about 50-40gal area for a refuge.

My sump/fug is like another display tank, just alot dirtier.

homebrewdude · 12/20/2007, 06:26 PM

Is it next to or under the tank?

usmc121581 · 12/20/2007, 06:33 PM

Its next to. Thre is no way to fit a 65 under a 120. I also built a top on it to match my DIY canapy.

when i build my stand for my 20 long im going to build a higher part to the side to put my fuge. that way you can see both, and you get the addad bennifet of a grvity fed dt.(no pumps to blenderise the little critters going into the dt)

I will be doing something similer. I will be adding a 20gal fuge the the oppisite side of the 65 gal and have one of my overflows feed the 20 gal fug then gavity feed the 65
