I have been in the hobby now off and on for a long time. I had a salt tank about 20 years ago and loved the beauty of the environment but became frustrated with the salt spray and maintenance. My recent tank was a 55 G fresh water live bearer tank. This tank just sprung a leak which was my prompting to try salt water again. I plan on purchasing an 80 G tank with a built in corner over flow and run it out to a sump in my garage. MAYBE! First I need to plug the leak in the 55 tank and secondly the garage is not heated. I am a DIYer and plan to build my own stands for the tanks and modify the 55 for the sump. I am just not sure if a sump in an unheated garage will be able to maintain the heated water. I was planning on wrapping the sump in foam insulation and having heaters in the sump. I have about 1,000 questions that I am going to go through the threads to see if any have already been answered.
Thanks
