    Their are pro's and con's with regards to a central filter system

    Con's

    If one tank gets an infection then all tanks will get it.

    Pro's

    less fuss and equipment required.

    I would really recommend that you get a UV sterilizer for this to reduce the chances of infections of other tanks and...

    ... quaranteen tank.

    Yeah i'll be using a UV sterilizer and plan to have cut-off valves on each tank so they can be on or off the central filter system.
