I have 65 Gal Fresh Water Drilled Reef Ready Tank. I have a Fluval Canister and a Sump. The Aquarium is in our family room and the sump can be loud (water trickle and pump). The Canister is nearly silent (run it 24/7 no problems). Can I run my sump on a timer to be off from 5 p.m. until 11 p.m.? The sump really moves the water but the canister is sufficient to keep the tank crystal clear. The fish are also kinda freaked out by the new water movement the sump provides.
The tank itself is hard to work on based on the space I have it in I would have to empty and pull it back out (top shelf does not remove) to add plumbing to make the drain silent.
