I bought this, it fits perfectly but it's hard to tell when it needs to be filled. I'm planning on building my own but have no clue where to start

Thanks, I'm hoping to get some good results. Putting my first frag in this weekend

I did that when I set my frag tank up. I put a couple of Montiporas in and called them "mine canaries". Let 'em soak for 2 weeks. They looked fine and then started filling it up with SPS.

@Jason aguila I agree with H@rry, that tank looks amazing. Is that tank custom?

Edit: Nevermind, just saw your build thread ( here for anyone interested). Amazing job man! Hope you don't mind if I copy you.
