Hello. Im finally done my 240gallon. I will have it upstairs with 55g sump in basement. I plan to have 1 pump do all. From 240 main it will drain down to basement fish room going through a 35gal full planted tank,
than a 90 gallon discus tank and
than 55gal cichlid tank
than 55gallon sump
Than back to main and repeat.
Will the planted tank help with nitrates if the plants are not in the same tank as the fish? Would it be better to have the planted tank the last tank before sump? I plan on putting more more tanks in basement eventually. Plan it all working with 1 pump and sponge filters. I spent 800 on pump and 400 on plumbing already. Want it done right but efficient. Any suggestions?
