A shot of the refugium area

I filled her up with water and then started adding stuff after some time

Added a Rio 2100 3 Current USA 24" T5 HO units to make sure I have plaenty of light

I had done a frag tank thread under the DIY section. I soon realized that a tank that small gets filled quickly........so I decided to upgrade. This is my new toy. It is 2'x3'x14.5". It has a built in sump area so the area that I actualy have to place my corals and such is 2'x2'x14.5"...

What ya planning on getting? Another Emerald?

There is more to put in there.....just haven't gotten around to it.

Thanks everyone! I actually just got that set up and got all my fragging tools but still don't even have anything to frag because I'm still cycling my 75/g tank. Anyone want to make any donations:D I actually got it started for my own pleasure. I want to be able to trade with people and such but...

Just wanted to share with you all my DIY 10g frag tank that I did today. Originally it was going to be a mini reef but since I am going to give fragging a go.....I decided to go ahead and try that. If it doesn't work out for me, I'll go back to the original plan:mrgreen: Materials and steps: 1...
