Hey guys I am going to make a DIY sump, my question is this.

Has anybody ever had a sump which was also used as a grow out tank??
If so, would you have photos and diagrams on how you made it??

might sound like a silly idea...........I need to utilise the sump space, the wife has put her foot down about me not getting yet another tank

I did, but it was a pretty unique situation:

i used a 55g tank and put the pump in its own section.i used a piece of acrylic with holes in the top 4" and a pond filter mat to block the holes and keep the babies out.but i took it down because the babies are in a different 55 now.

I did that too, but not for fry, just to separate incompatible inhabitants temporarily.
