So, my tank is not drilled.
I am a plumber, so I can make pretty much anything with piping, hoses etc.
I would like to eliminate my over the side filter.
I was told the canister filters are a real pain to clean and have other problems.
I was told a sump can only be used in a drilled tank. (I don't want an overflow tank on the side, that defeats the purpose of getting rid of the over the side filter.)
So whats the real deal?
How exactly does a sump work? Mechanically, how are they built?
Has anyone done a sump without a drilled tank?
Any comments on the canister filter issue?
