Do Not Listen To Me!!!
I purchased a brand new 75 Gallon Aqueon un-drilled tank to replace my current 75 Gallon Sump tank because I can't have down time to fix the silicone seal that came loose on the bubble trap.
So no I have an extra 75Gal tank that will be laying around and I also have a barely used Nova Extreme Pro 6x54 Light System.
So I was wondering how hard it would be to make it a frag tank.
Do I HAVE to have a sump for it and a protein skimmer. Can I just get aa small HOB filter and be done with it?
I was going to if I can slap 2 small powerheads in it and make a large eggcrate frag rack to hang halfway down in the tank.
Just one layer for frags to grow and they will sit close to the light this way. Plus I should be Nitrate and whatever else free.
But with no rock, skimmer and the suck will this work well especially for acros.
What would be a water change regimen. Once a month with dosing?
I couuld alway toss fish in for QT but then with nothing but an HOB filter(if it can be done with one) wouldn't it not be a good idea.
