Apr 8, 2014 #27 OP OP Jack.Cullen Aquarium Advice Regular Joined Apr 8, 2014 Messages 50 Location Melbourne, Australia I see, why would nitrates build up? Might be a stupid question but I just want justification

Apr 8, 2014 #30 Macscale Aquarium Advice Addict Joined Jan 11, 2014 Messages 2,850 Location Lakewood Ranch, Florida. A sump would be best. A HOB filter would do too.
Apr 8, 2014 #31 OP OP Jack.Cullen Aquarium Advice Regular Joined Apr 8, 2014 Messages 50 Location Melbourne, Australia Okay I'll have to look around then
Apr 13, 2014 #32 OP OP Jack.Cullen Aquarium Advice Regular Joined Apr 8, 2014 Messages 50 Location Melbourne, Australia What size sump would you think if need?
Apr 13, 2014 #33 Macscale Aquarium Advice Addict Joined Jan 11, 2014 Messages 2,850 Location Lakewood Ranch, Florida. The biggest one you can get.
