I had a little extra time on my hands this weekend and got things all done on my grow out tank.

I was going to do a Plexi set up with two 8x8x36 but when I saw this tub at Home Depot for $10 I could not pass it up.

Now for the pics, dont mind the pluming my tanks are in the basement so im not looking for the "clean" look ;)

Dont mind the mess, just got it done and could not wait to take some pics :D

Its a 16 Gal tub that holds about 13 in my set up.

Nice work!

I dig the pumbing job you've done!

Looking forward to seeing some pics with corals.

I used something like that when I did a touch pool at the Childrens Museum in Appleton a few years ago. I think it is a great and cheap way to have a frag tank. I thought about doing the same thing in the shop but went a different direction. I think that black will coraline up nicely for you and you will love it.

I think the plumbing looks very nice.
