This is what I was using as a frag tank but the flow and lighting just wasn't working out for me.

So I picked up a 10 gallon tank at Petco $1 per gallon sale:thumbsup: And some 3/8" slip fittings and 3/8" Pex tubing from Lowes. And I had some scrap 1/8" acrylic waiting to be used, so I came up with this.

P.S. Those metal cups suck. They release fast but don't last as long as the plastic ones (that are also $30 cheaper).
Thanks.
And your right they wear out fast, but I don't use them as often as you do. Only when I need to remove a large mirror or glass pane.
 
It's going through a few changes, the plumbing wasn't allowing enough LR rubble to be added to the filter side so I pulled the pipes and added another MJ 600 but that was too loud. So I pulled the upper bulkhead and started working on a coast to coast overflow. I just glued it together and will install it tomorrow.

Lots of changes this weekend and still not done. Tomorrow I'm building the frag racks and the filter tray.

You get to work on a frag tank (which is looking good) and I had to install a storm door and new set of French doors. I am so jealous. I did get in a round of golf this evening:)

Nice when I golf I hit line drives about 200 yards and a foot and half off the ground. Lmao golf is not for me.

A woman runs into the pro shop and yells help I got stung by a bee!!
The golf pro asks "Where did you get stung?"
The woman replies "Between the first and second holes!"
The golf pro says " Oh your stance it too wide"
