Anyone make a tank "extension"?

jrod11 · 02/04/2008, 10:03 AM

I was wondering if anyone has stepped up their filtration and then split their plumming so that you are running another smaller tank close by your main tank. Anyone have any pictures or plans?

Are you talking about something like this

My main tank is on the other side of the wall. Everything is plumbed together other then the 10g on the left.

Yes something like that! What do you have on the other side? Do you have a pic?

Here are pics of my tank setup: www.jaredmoore.com/reef.asp

I think it would be cool to create an extension that I could turn into a clownfish and anemone tank. or maybe a FOWLR

Dubbin1....

Nice Tank!!! Love the aquascaping...

What size display tank is that, and how large is your sump/fuge?

Is that a 33g long tank?

Thanks

Thanks... I'm in the process of setting up a 90g reef and will probably go with a similar size sump/fuge.
