Good morning all! We have a 23 gallon tank sitting on a big old wooden office desk. We don't use the desk for much anymore other than to enjoy our tank on. (Seems that since we came down with this "reef disease" we don't bring work home as much as we used to, we just enjoy our hobby!) Anyway, here is my next dumb question. We are currently using 2 HOBs, one for a fuge with cheato and the other to hide our heater as well as an option for filtering media if we desire. But HOBs have their downside. So, has anyone ever placed a fuge next to their display tank with the water levels in both tanks being equal, but use a siphon (similar to an HOB overflow box) to draw water into the fuge and then a pump to return it to the display? We can see all types of potential problems with flooding etc. but wonder if anyone has tried it and what results they achieved? Also, we're open to hearing your ideas about how we might go forward and give this concept a try. (We've been thinking of tearing out the carpeting anyway!)
Thanks for your time and ideas!
