Wet/Dry Users: What Size Sump and Filter Flow Rate are you using?

[basslover34]

^^ I thought anaerobic couldn't live in an oxygen rich enviroment like an air injected wet/dry?

as long as it's submersed it's alright... it's when there is more o2 than water that it's a problem

Filtrations fun.

I really wish I wouldn't have missed some steps in the process of eveolution of a MFKer. I really needed to find all this filtration crap interesting and started experimenting with it before spending oodles of money on fish.

But I guess if you don't spend the money on the fish and loose a few you don't truley understand the importance of it.

Maybe by stumbling onto threads like this some of the newer generations of MFKers will find it interesting......

They will either find it interesting or mind numbingly boring LOL

I personally find it Extremely interesting! I have a thousand questions about sumps and pumps and overflows, as I have no experience with them until tonight when I begin to plumb a drilled 125 and turn an old glass 55 into a sump. I do know that bacteria functions best in an oxygen rich environment so I will use a trickle effect in my bio chamber and then baffle out the bubbles, other than mechanical filtration is there anything else I need?
