There are lots of ways to do this. Were you going to have both tanks in the open or was one going to be hidden?
One of the simplest would be to use a canister filter system with the intake line in one tank and the return line in the other tank and then use […]

You’re welcome Bill. But I’m not sure that article is for “newbie’s”. I think it would leave most newbie’s scratching their heads… but it is a GREAT article for folks who have a basic understanding of the nitrogen cycle, as it goes into many other facets of the tank’s ecology and how things […]

I quarantine and slowly acclimate all new acquisitions, fish, critters, plants, etc. I hope you’ve done a lot of research on clams. They are not the panacea that some websites or retailers claim them to be. I do not know of any updated and accurate information on these since they are still […]

Here’s a couple of sites (that I have in my favorites folder) that go through how to re-silicone a tank. I would keep the top frame like others have said and just put the cracked part where it’s least noticeable.
