Hi Everyone,
My names dips and i am trying to set up a marine tank. We used to have a tropical but wanted a change so decided to fit a marine tank in the wall
. I have some things which i have bought already which are :
Tank 4ft(bow front tank 260litre)
Sump (which needs work)
flowjets x2
aqua ray
the usual normal lights
plumbing mostly done already
and some other bits and bobs.
The main thing i need help with at the moment is my sump tank...I have been adviced by a friend to use an up and over type but the one i have is different and have been told to re-design it. Here is what it looks like:
How do i divide this sump? Its roughly 1 metre in length, approx 15inches high and 15inches deep.
Also can anyone advice me on which pump would be best for this sump and tank i have.
Many thankss
