so i just got my overflow for my 30 gal tank. i should have my sump built by the end of the week. i am just making my final decision on designs. i will be using a 15 gal tank. it is 24x12x12. i am going to do a 3 chamber design. with a bubble trap dividing the last chamber. i will be doing a fuge in the center chamber with about 10 pounds of live rock and some kind of macro algea. here is the design i think i will be going with
1st chamber - filter sock.
2nd chamber - fuge - live rock rubble and macro algea
3rd chamber - bubble trap. possible sponge to catch large deterious - return pump and heater
i have a prism HOB skimmer that i was going to hang on the first chamber for now untill i get a larger unit to place in the sump.
do i need to build the sock holder with the divider wall like in that sump design i posted or would it be fine to just to have the sock sitting in the first chamber?
any input is welcome. thanks in advance
