Adding Frag Tank To Main Display | Reef Tank

In this video I will be adding a 10 gallon frag tank to the main display tank. I will show you everything i did step by step so you can do this on your own. Adding this frag tank has allowed me to store up to 200 frags without any of them being inside my main display. Please enjoy the video.

your frag tank water source coming from the refugium under the main display tank and the exit goes where ?
FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
A dcs 12000 return pump and then into a manifold that powers my gfo, carbon reactor, biopellets, uv and this tank. After the water drains back into the sump skimmer section to be cleaned before repeating the process.

FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
Just make sure you slowly drip acclimate them to salt. If you do it over a few days i have found they do better in the long run.

You need magnets to hold your frag racks up. BRS sells some great epoxy covered magnets that work great.

Love it! Thanks for the clear and thorough video. I'm interested in getting into the reefkeeping hobby (currently tropical freshwater only), and I've been doing all the research I can before I make the investment. What light fixture did you use for this setup?
FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
Im using the SB Reef light, I also have three of them over the main display. I have a beginner guide series you should check out that might assist you in starting.

nice build. lol i was going to ask how long it would take before you put fish in there and you already did. Is that a saltwater mollie? Do they do a good job with cleanup? USAF Retired.
FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
Thanks and yes that was one of the original mollies i introduced in a previous video. They are great at picking algae if any was to ever sneak up. Mollies are a brackish fish so fresh or salt is fine for them. Thanks for watching

Nice job man. I might have some plumping questions for you soon. Like, how do you block a predrilled hole in the bottom of a tank?
Infamous Aquatics
Infamous Aquatics - 8 years ago
Will do. There will def be a video for it
FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
Let me know how everything works out
Infamous Aquatics
Infamous Aquatics - 8 years ago
I think I am going to try that end cap out. Thanks brother.
FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
You could also put a bulkhead in with pvc pipe and have the end capped off to prevent flow that would be the safer thing to do
FishOfHex
FishOfHex - 8 years ago
You can use acrylic or glass sheet and silicone it over the holes but i wouldn't mess with that just not worth the risk
