Propagation Tank - Hydroponic

[Jesoccer94]

I am thinking about setting up another propagation tank. Was wondering what the community’s thoughts are on hydroponic frag tanks. What to buy? Where to buy? Lighting recommendation, etc? Really appreciate your help.

Do you mean flood trays instead of a glass or acrylic? What size tank are you thinking?

Yes I am tanking about flood trays. I’m thinking probably one of these dimensions, 4x2, 4x4, or 6x3. And 6” to 8” deep

Flood trays are flimsy and horrible. I wouldn't trust them with more than 4" of water. I'd recommend the rubbermaid stock totes. The 50gal is bulletproof and cheap.

Those are nice, thanks for the feedback. I’m starting to just consider spending the extra money on acrylic or glass since it’s going to be in my office. Was thinking the trays would be nice and cheap but may be better for me. When I get a house I may do a set up like this. Awesome idea!!
