frag tank

Recommended Posts

Anyone have a good condition frag tank available? Looking for 48x24x something no more than 12. Let me know asap! Thanks

Sorry to de-rail the typical response BUT...

 

24x48x8 Hydroponics tray: $35 at most "indoor" grow stores choose from black or white, best tank investment I ever made.  If you put it in a wood frame you can insulate the bottom and sides, I also made a quick acrylic cover.  No glass to clean, the sides just grow coraline.  You get faster velocity flow since it's only 25 gallons, and PAR is quite lovely in the first 6 inches of water depth, why waste light...  I have my return nozzles oriented to minimize surface disturbance and use a wave maker on a 6hr OFF timer when cutting frags, or working in the tank.

 

Here are some random pics, I've ran this setup for 2-1/2 years now.

Yeah, it comes with a 2x6 framed stand I could park my rover on. I've also got a sump that can go with it and other stuff.

 

It's also got 4 their acrylic frag racks for roughly 750 ish plugs.

 

I'm pretty sure you saw the tank at my house, it's 1" rimless acrylic.

 

Anyways... $500, it's like brand new.
