I think I figured out how to rig up my sump. I have 2 HOB filters one rated for a 55 and 30 gallon tank. I also have a canister filter rated for 100 gallons. The plan is to drill into one of the HOBs installing a valve and hose that leads in to the 30 gal sump. Water flows through the refugium which will have frogbit and moss maybe another floating plant or a immersed plant. Then into a area with bioballs then in the compartment with the heater, air pump and return. The return pump will in my case be the intake on my canister filter. It will go through more filtration and output into the display tank. Currently none of the hobs are being used. But with this method if I lose power I lose siphon as well.
