so this is my tank just for fun after I downsized. I wanted to have 2 tanks on the same stand so I started getting ideas.

I had this stand built for the 2 tanks and plumbed the frag tank with the original plumbing but had to rig it till I got more funding lol.

this is the plumbing for now but I'm going to add a bottom to the stand and set the new sump in soon. But in the mean time I started getting the little details in check. I went out and bought a yoga matt and placed it under the tank for support. It was 24 x68 so it worked well. I cut it to size and cut the hole from under for the plumbing
