(For conversations sake) Zoo Med Low Boy

THEUNION1 · 04/26/2018, 02:22 AM

I have a brand new Low Boy by Zoo Med just sitting in the box. It is 48x24x10" tall. What do you think about a tide pool style Top view set up? Im open to other ideas, i'm just drawing a blank.

It can be drilled but if possible i'd rather do some sort of HOB filter and or a HOB skimmer.

What would you do with it besides a frag tank or tell me to give it to you? Haha

I have been thinking it would be cool to do a shore line tank with rocks and mangroves at one end. It would include a way box or surge device to generate waves.

Have you been to Amazing Aquariums and Reefs? If not, go check them out. He has a really nice tank setup on a low boy style tank.

I like Ali's low tank. I just saw a tank with similar dimensions at another store that was just anemones and clownfish. It was pretty sweet looking.

I built that tank for him.

I was leaning towards that. It would be pretty awesome. I may just need to give it a shot. Maybe a coast to coast behind the rocks and a return on the other side.
