    Hi tom, I can sort you a quarantine tank if you like? Are you wanting it to be permanent though?

Maybe a sieve and shower would be the most space saving solution as shower would be above tank. Haven’t got the room for pod/barrels/nexus, not without getting rid of my thing tackle lol

    I've thought about building one, but I'd have to fibreglass it and put bottom drain, time I've done all that, it's probably cheaper and quicker to buy a tank?
