New frag tank.....

I set up a 10 gallon frag tank (was going to do a 20 long but didn't have the room). I have a 70 watt HQI MH that I bought from TeresaQ (great person to deal with
) for lighting and a Cascade 300 HOB filter for filtration and a small powerhead for added water movement. I can't wait for my plugs to come in so I can start putting frags in here.
I also attached pics of a couple of new additions to the display tank....

Also, these are some zoos that popped up out of no where on a mushroom rock I have had for nearly 1 year. When I fragged a few shrooms a while back, I guess the light started getting to the zoos and they have grown quite a bit and have grown in numbers from 2 to 5 in only 1 month!

Looks great. I have a 3 gallon Acrylic with PC's I had setup for a frag tank, but then yesterday I bought a gorgeous peacock mantis and that tank is now solely his home!!

The reason I want a completely seperate frag tank is if something happens to the display tank, then I will have frags of all my corals to start over with (hopefully this never happens).

Well me personally, If I ever have more than one tank, I want to connect them all, for extremely stable water.

I do! It is also a safety measure too. I have a few rare SPS that I would die if I lost.
I will have another atlantis pink polyp monti ready in about 2 months. If you are 100% sure you want it, I will give you first shot at it.
