frag tank in cabinet?

[Xclusive Reef]

So I have started cycle on my jbj 45 and thought about getting a frag tank 18 x 18 x 6 and keeping it inside my cabinet. I need some opinions on these AIO frag tanks. Good idea or Bad?.. don't want to waste time and money if corals mostly LPS will not make it in this type of frag system. all i can fit in tank is return, heater skimmer and some filter floss. I might be able to get a way with a chaeto reactor for the frag tank.

My main concern is heat and darkness from being in the cabinet.

If anyone else is doing it lets see it.

I turned make JBJ 45 into having a Sump
I bought a Trigger systems Cube 18x18 inches added a light ( which would also work for a frag tank too.

Yes I see your point BUT a little different.. You have your jbj 45 tank going through the sump. I would not. It would be 2 independent tanks.
