So I was wondering if anyone has some schematics or pics of a 10 gallon sump I'm planning on building one for my 75 gallon to help with the bio load because of some hujetas that are fatties.
I was planning on using a old lizard tank for the glass to make the chambers for the different parts and a 10 gallon for the actual sump/ refugium. What else should I do with it

Are you sure the 10 gallon is going to be big enough in the case of a power failure? I don't have it any more but I had a 10 gallon partitioned off in thirds at one time for a 20 gallon. Skimmer in the first section where the water dumped in, return pump in the middle, and a small fuge in the last section that was fed by a t from my return pump. Almost all of my sumps have been set up,this way.
