hey brent, for my nursery tank, I have it on a portable cart. I put a submersible pump in the main sump of the tank, and the overflow hose goes back into the sump. It looks cheesy for a bit but it is practical until they are eating well, then they go in with the small juvenile ray rubbermaid pond. I bought a cheap 30 gallon acrylic tank and used that. When you're done you wheel it away in the garage until the next batch arrives.
