Aquarium Advice Apprentice
currently i have 2 frshwater tanks and was thinking about moving to salt water in a year or so maybe more depending on money. i was thinking of running my 4 foot 44 gallon as a fowlr and using the 20 as a sump, then many years down the track ( as in when i have a decent job) upgrading to a larger tank and trying reef, possibly 72" by 24" by 24" and sumping the 44 and using the 20 as a quarintine. ok enought of my dream ramble.
it seems to me a concern is keeping the water tempertaure constant i was thinking if you contained you sump in a cabinet/in a stand would it not be be a good idea to insulate the stand so at least a % of your water will be in this enviroment and you will require less heater/chiller time. Sorry about the big post for a small point .
