Aquarium Advice Addict
Ok, I am doing the dang deal. Copying this design http://www.melevsreef.com/acrylics/sumps/glass/index.html
I will have the aquacrylics overflow/ Mag7 return pump/ and aquamedic turboflotor Multi. The 20g long tank is about 12" tall If I make the first 3 baffles (over,under,over) about 10". Will the 2 inches left of clearance be enough for when the power is out and the overflow drains into the sump. And With the turboflotor multi I am unsure how I will set it up in the sump.
And on the 3rd baffle do I really need to cut 1/2 inch teeth on the top?? How far apart should the baffles be from each other to get good flow threw I was thinking about 2" space between them. Then the last piece seperating the refugium from the return pump I will cut 4" acrylic with egg crate siliconed to the top of it. So it will flow from right to left. 1st skimmer comp then through baffles 2nd refugium zone 3rd section return pump zone with heater.
Anybody cut acrylic before that could offer any advice or any comments on this particular design would be greatly appreciated.
