Aquarium Advice Addict
Hi all,
I am currently using a wet/dry filter with bioballs. It is separated into 2 areas-bio ball and return pump. I currently have 2 mag pumps in the pump area and they barely fit. We have 45 lbs of fiji rock, 4 lbs of base rock and I now have 30lbs of FL aquacultured rock. I think 75lbs of rock with a 75 gal tank would be the minimum requirements for natural filtration, right?
We have been looking at taking the wet/dry out and using a rubbermaid container or similar product. Unfortunately, with the 2x4 bracing in the stand, it does not fit most standard containers. I bought a 66 QT that I think might fit but I am not sure yet. Would a 55 QT container be big enough?
I would like to have Berlin skimmer in the sump as well so I need something somewhat wide. Maybe a 20 gal glass tank would work? Would using 2 containers connected by a PVC pipe work? Anyone have any ideas?
Sorry for the rambling but I would like to do this in a way that I know will work
