Ok heres the scenario. I have a good Friend with a 135 gl tank with stand and canopy. He is insistent upon using this tank. There is no place for a sump short of running the plumbing down into his garage and building an insulated cabinet for it. Its a newer home and the room sets over the garage. Can I make this work? I have a Deltec mce 600 hang on skimmer rated @ around 120 gl . And a larger hang on cpr refugium. I was also thinking of using the new bio pellets in a 2 fishes hang on reactor to help with filtration if needed . Ok I know this sounds like a lot of crap in the tank. I am relatively sure I could keep it hidden . Is this ridiculous? thanks for looking. DB
the stand is more of a book case in the bottom its open with some shelves. I have told him that its just the wrong tank for a reef set up but. I was thinking that there may be a way to make it work
I say hang em if ya got em! I ran my 75g like that, and my 180 has been set up like that for months. It would be possible to do it with the insulated room too tho, either way will work IMO.
I was also thinking (worst case scenario) is that I could build a bigger hob refugium. I may at least drill it for an overflow while its empty, in case I need to plumb it later?

Sounds like a good idea to me, definitely easier to drill it now then after its set up. Just don't forget to cap it
Ideas for new set up please
