Some photos of the recent addition, a 60x36x12 frag tank. It is connected to the main system.

- 250w MH
- x3 mp40's
- VT Battery back up.

I don't have a lot of flow going to this tank since I just tee'd off one of my return pumps, hence the reason for all the VT.

Thanks. It does have a lot of flow, the mp40's are only run at half power. From my experience it is important to have lots of flow to help with algae issues.
