One of the chain pet stores is having the $1 gallon tank sales this Sunday and I think it'll be a great time to replace my tickle tower with a sump. Right now I have a 1 inch pvc overflow which leads to the tower. On the opposite side I have a 30 gallon tank with live sand and rock which I seeded with pods. This pod tank is connected with its own 3/4 inch pvc over flow and a powerhead leading to the return pump of the trickle tower. Every week I drop the 3/4 overflow into the DT and turn on the power head and tune it with a ball valve to as best I can get it so nothing overflows into the floor. This has been working ok for PODS getting to the DT and everything for now. But I want to make a sump and take out the tower because it's too loud. I'd love to keep the POD tank to itself like it is now but connect it somehow to the new sump..preferably at the end of the system so the PODS only go through 1 pump. I have to do 2 30 gallon tanks because of the opening to the cabinet.
Would it be a waste of time and effort to split the system like this? Or hard to sync up everything? Anyone have any other tips/ideas?
Thanks
