I was considering trying to build a custom display and decided I should ask if anyone has done or seen something like this. Has anyone ever seen a display of multiple pico display tanks run from one very big fuge? I think there are a lot of interesting and beautiful species of coral/inverts/fish that all have there own individual qualities. This led me to thinking about a multi display that could have varied species but displayed in their own tank with their own lighting conditions etc. My origional idea was to build a large heavy bookcase for all my history books and include a few shadow box like spaces that would contain these multiple pico tanks. I planned on them being about a gallon and a half to three gallons each (varying sizes may be more pleasing to the eye) with a single sump/fuge contained within a cabinet at the base of the shelf. Overall shelf would be approx. twelve feet wide, eight feet high and fourteen inches deep. I figured building this from scratch would be way better than trying to retrofit an existing unit (wiring for lights, plumbing, etc.)
Any ideas, advice, name calling etc.? If I go forward with this project I will be sure to post tons of pics and step by step stuff so if it's never been built before we can all learn from my success or failure. Any and all advice or ideas are always very welcome.:D
