medi Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Is there any kind souls out there who are knowledgeable about acrylic work that would be willing to help me out with some acrylic. I am limited on space so I would like to make a custom stack tank with an ATO reservoir on the bottom and a refugium on top. Here is a rather ghetto example of what I want to do.

DaJMasta Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 If you flip the stack order your fuge can have a gravity fed ATO. I would make them as separate tanks, then build something to hold them up and let them slide out or something similar for maintenance. Stacking tanks is no easy task though.

That's a good idea except it won't work for my situation. I need the fuge to be elevated so that it will gravity feed into my sump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a place to work, and I have most of the tools that I believe I would need. I just want to make sure this is done right, and I only have very limited experience working with acrylic.
