Holding System (1 Viewer)

Well, 2 weeks after the frag swap at my house, we moved.
I sold the 110 as I have bigger plans.
For now everything is in a holding system I put together in the garage, thought I'd share a few pics:

Things look to be pretty happy even in their temporary home:

It's 2x 100 Gallon Rubbermaid stock tanks ($65 ea at Tractor Supply)
They are elevated on 4x4s (not high enough, needs to be higher so gravity drain works better).
Have an improvised strainer over the bulkheads in each tank.
Drain flows into my existing sump.
Return pump pulls from the sump, runs it through the chiller, then back to the tanks.
Flow is pretty slow (see elevation issue) but is adequate.
Also running an air pump with airstones in each tank to keep oxygenation levels up.

Looks like a nice set up to me...... I am sure they do like it better as the water level is shallower then in your old tank so they are getting more light..... I hope the move went well. Keep us posted on your "Bigger Plans" I am jealous
