Just thought I'd share with you all. I loaded it with filter floss, a dozen sponges and rinsed gravel. The pump is a Rio+ 2100. No more hangers!

Might've worked better pulling from the filter, but didn't think of it. Seems to be working. Will it be enough?

Just watch that hose clamp in the main tank. I know it's stainless steel but most of them are made of super low grade. I work at a boat yard. I'v seen them start to rust from condensation You may want to switch it out for a high tensile zip tie.
