Tonight I am going to be removing the current sump and replacing it witha larger, more effecient one, but first a couple of questions. First of all, I have a 29 gallon tank with a 15 gallon sump. I decided to bump it up to a 20 gallon sump with more chambers in it. Should I use the same sand that was in the previous sump in the new one or can I replace it with some new live sand that I bought? I dont want to mess with the bacteria and was thinking about going half old sand and half new sand, but wanted some opinions first. Secondly, I want to add mud later on, maybe in a week or two, but which goes on top, the mud or the sand. And is mud even worth it? Lastly, since the tank is larger my skimmer (coralife) is going to be converted from hob to in sump. Is there any difference between the two methods? TIA........
