Frag tank in the tank next to the skimmer and fuge in the lower sump. That's what I would do.

Sorry if I missed it, but how are you controlling Humidity in this room? That's alot of surface area with all 4 tanks. Your evaporation rate for that small of a display tank is going to be insane.

The support system is going to be used for a larger system in the very near future, so the display will only be temparary.

The humidity will be controlled by an exhaust fan in the hole you see in the wall on the left hand side of the closet (next to the skimmer tank). This leads right outside to vent humidity. I also have a large de-humidifier in the room that the closets are in.

Eventually I will install an HRV, but until the day money grows on trees, the humidifier and the exhaust fan will have to do!

How many tangs do you have in your 20 gallon Nano? NONE... because you have the common sense and decency not to do something silly.
This coming from a guy who's about to stuff a VOLCANO into a 50g.. Have you no decency man! That poor volcano :-(

Do you have any idea how much swimming room those volcanoes need? Also they grow extremely fast so you'll need to upgrade in a couple of weeks time.

Setup looks sweet right now, can't wait to see the finished product!

One question, I may have missed it, are those brute containers directly above each other? It seems like accessing the bottom one might be a little difficult.
