Hey guys
I got a 220 plywood tank.
I'm hoping for 2-3 Arrowana and 2 rays to be the eventual stock. Maybe a few randoms to fill the inbetween space.
Presently I have no room bellow for a sump, I have a 24x24x24 space beside the tank I could put two large cannisters, but these are pricey. Presently I was thinking of custom building the biggest sump/tank to fit in the hole. Over all I think I can get a bit more space and have a 60G sump setup, with a trickle wet/dry
I also have direct access in the wall behind the tank to water and a drain. So I was thinking of overflowing the sump with a drip into the tank. This should help with nitrates.
I am tight on space and trying to figure out my best bet for over flowing the tank tot he sump.
I was going to do 3 bulkheads, and piped together externally, then set the overflow out side the tank with these. Giving the rays 3 they would need to block to effect flow.
2 would be lower level flat intakes. One setup as a skimmer
Sorry about the crap pic, I'll hand draw one in a bit that's better.
