Hi Guys,
I currently have a 30G FW tank. I am going to get a 80G SW and use the 30G for a sump (DIY).
Ive done a lot of reasearch on sump ideas and am still very puzzled.
So far I have in my idea the idea of 4 compartments with 2 baffles, or 3 compartments?
First compartment water flows into first compartment (through a sock or not?) and goes through a baffle and under into live rock or bio balls? Which ones better? or is it better to go straight into the live rock or bio balls?
Then over the top into a skimmer compartment back through a baffle then into return pump compartment?
Is it good to have DSB? If so where? Necessary?
I seriously need help on this.
Thanks Jon
