Anybody run a tuff stuff 110g tub as a sump/frag/qt? If so, how is it holding up to our saltwater and what size is the drain?
 
I wasn’t familiar with Tuff Stuff so I looked it up. The first thing I didn’t like was the BRASS drain plug. If you do go with this, get that out of there and replace with plastic.

I also thought it looked a little flimsy compared to Rubbermaid stock tanks. And the price….higher than Rubbermaid stock tanks of the same or similar size.


Why not just stick with Rubbermaid stock tank?

$60 used local for the 110. I want it really for a frag system, but able to house a wrasse and foxface too. I too didn't like the brass plug but intended to swap it (I don't like copper and I know my frags wouldn't either). The Rubbermaid 50 stock is nice, but I'd lose the benefit of a foxface. All there others (rubbermaid) are 24+ inches deep.
Still thinking it over so please keep your ideas coming. Much appreciated. :D
 
Gonna go with the 100g or 150g Rubbermaid tub instead. Would love to see pics of these set up as frag systems.
