form follows function. the type of filtration you use should be determined by the type of flora and fauna you keep

no the sump is not for the new tank. in the future it might b idk for now i wanna jsut get it running

You'd need a return pump and a filter media to run the sump if you don't already have. You could cap the holes and run the canister but you'd be missing out on the benefits or a wet dry & sump. What do you plan on stocking that tank with?

. i dnt want to cap it. i can make another sump in like 20 min not a problem. just need to buy a new pump or connect my 55g that has a 1000gph pump with a sump and over flow to the 180???? i will b stocking it with a pair of motoro'z, aro'z, maybe some cats or polyz
