125g - closed loop setup help - planted
Need some help setting up my 125
I'm going to use 3 nu-clear modular filters 1 with pads and carbon, 2 for bio material.
How to setup the plumbing?
The tank has THREE 1 1/2" holes drilled in it, 2 of them are on the side of the tank halfway down, and the third hole is in the back 3 quarters of the way to the bottom...
Option 1
build internal overflow/surface skimmer for the 2 drain holes on the side, through filters and return back into tank from hole in back.
Option 2
Use all 3 holes as a drain and pump water back into tank through a DIY spray bar.
Option 3
Split the return line to return half the water through the back hole and the other half through the spray bar.
Any better Ideas??
Any idea for a pump that is quiet and pumps a lot of water? was thinking "Quiet One 6000" Can anyone recommend this?
Please help
