[MarineDepot]

JBJ stopped by MDHQ for a lunch & learn session today with our staff to show us around their new 20-gallon AIO frag tank. Coming soon to Marine Depot!

We'll have 2 of these tanks and JBJ's new 45-gallon rimless cube setup in our booth at Reef-A-Palooza October 12th and 13th at the OC Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, CA. Be sure to stop by and say hello... we'll be giving away a ton of goodies and we'll have all the latest equipment on display! :listen:

JBJ 20 Gallon Frag Tank: More Info

We acquired more information about the frag tank's features, benefits and specs:

• JBJ Rimless Aquarium Series, Model RL-20
• Rimless shallow frag tank with 20-gallon capacity
• All-in-one (AIO) style 3 chamber filtration system in back
• A black lid is also included to cover the filtration chambers
• The glass is bent/curved around the corners and is 6mm thick
• A tempered glass lid with clips is included
• A black egg crate is included and has black PVC feet/risers for support
• JBJ estimates the tank can fit 792 small frag plugs or 396 medium frag plugs
• A 16 watt pump is included with a flow rate of 266 gallons per hour and 120cm of head pressure
• The center column is designed to be spacious to accommodate a heater and chiller components
• It sounds like mechanical filter media (a large sponge) is going to be included
• JBJ is recommending their Pacifica LED and says the lid/cover is pre-cut to fit the Pacifica's mounting bracket
• There will be a couple of sold separately 36" aquarium stands available: a knockdown cabinet stand with a designated chiller area or a custom stand with a drawer to store fragging tools.

Boo! We totally sympathize and completely understand why that would leave a sour taste.

We haven't got our hands on one yet but we will be getting one later this week to setup in our booth at Reef-A-Palooza. We are hearing the price will be $399 and that it will feature 8mm bent glass like their 30 gallon rimless. The filtration chamber in back will be consistent with their other rimless tanks so you'll have space to place a heater or place chiller components. We believe the dimensions are 26.5" x 21" x 19". A sold separately stand will also be available, but we'll probably offer it with and without to make buying easier. Here are some photos we spied on JBJ's Facebook page:
