    Dude that would be awesome!! Just crawl in your reef tank in cool weather and knock a few back with the fishes. Just like a day at the beach. LOL

    frag tank sound pretty good to me.. that way you can grow as many frags as you want and then just use the ones you want and sell some etc..

    it would be beyond legit if you mounted it high and put a glass dome in the middle for you to put your head in

    Hey guys!!!! I can't believe I found this thread. I've had a. Saltwater hot tub for about a year now and have been building it for two years. I just got another one also. I basically turned a hot tub into a frag farm.. I've made 100s of videos of the build and stocking. Ill post two links and than you guys can search from there on my channels. SALTWATERMANIA26'S CHANNEL INVITE - YouTube http://www.youtube.com/user/cichlidm...?feature=watch another 300 gallon frag tank build - YouTube

    I also started another channel under saltwatermania26

    i would put a sheet of glass over most the tank and fill the water up to it so you can actually see all the livestock.
